They get the space for nothing, so it's a cost-free prize.</p> <p>Been tempted to enter so I could really hack-off the anti-cyclists by parking my bike in a prime car-parking space, forcing them to have to walk another few feet on their own two legs from car to work :-) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13164#post-160019 Tue, 22 Jul 2014 12:48:30 +0000 Greenroofer 160019@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@Stickman. Please do enter this raffle and win it. You would then have the option of keeping a bicycle in the parking space for a month, which might be an ironic response. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13164#post-160016 Tue, 22 Jul 2014 12:42:44 +0000 Stickman 160016@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>That's quite a common one at my work as well! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13164#post-160014 Tue, 22 Jul 2014 12:38:16 +0000 I were right about that saddle 160014@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Where I work there was recently a sale of sugary cakes to overweight sedentary office workers in aid of the British Heart Foundation. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13164#post-160011 Tue, 22 Jul 2014 12:21:41 +0000 Stickman 160011@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I'm not sure if this technically qualifies as irony or not, but it amused me anyway:</p> <p>A group of people in work are doing a bike ride across Britain challenge for charity. As part of their fundraising they are holding a raffle.</p> <p>The prize?</p> <p>Use of one of the work car parking spaces for a month. </p>
