Sir, - With the current focus on bicycle use, it is surprising that there has been no mention of the need for improved bicycle parking facilities. Despite the level of bicycle theft, there are few, if any, supervised bicycle parks in Dublin city.
Perhaps the large city car-park owners could each volunteer to provide 100 supervised bike-parking spaces each (sacrificing perhaps 25 car spaces), as a gesture of good will to the urban cyclist. - Yours, etc., Michael Conry,
