I mentioned that advantage just a couple weeks ago here.

At big box stores I cycle right up to the flag pole, tree, sign post or
bike rack next to the entrance, lock the bike and I'm cycling home with my
staple good, i.e., milk, flour, pasta, beer, chicken gizzards, wilted
greens, moldy bread, etc., before a motorist can even make it across the
huge parking lot.

I'm working on getting them to allow cycling into the store and down the
aisles to save even more time -- "zero stop shopping."

One problem with cycling into some banks is the trap doors need to open
faster.


I have cycled to some shops and taken my bike inside - the ones that object,
I refuse to patronise anymore and use friendlier ones instead.

Jesus Christ!


It's called voting with your feet - they allow disablity scooters, prams, pushchairs and baby buggies in.
