I've used the bike parking near terminal one, about as secure as the rest of the place and I've never had a problem. You could try one of the other parking places such as skyparksecure but I'm not sure if they take bikes.

Did have a problem with my helmet once when they would'nt let me take it on the plane, I had to leave it with lost property and pay a fiver to pick it up. I now take a big rucksack and carry it in there inside a helmet bag.

I've seen the bike parking near terminal one , it looks okay and does have cctv. Its just off a roundabout when you come in to terminal one . (basically it appears to be inside the roundabout).

Thing is i've never done it, just because of the leathers, helmet situation. I came close recently but still opted for the car.

I've read somewhere that there's another parking company at Manchester airport, (Premier?), but again what about lid, leathers etc.

Plus in this weather, you may well stink when you get there, okay if your business class I suppose, I have seen showers in the BA lounge in terminal 3.

I'd realy like a solution to all this, because I end up setting off stupidly early in the car, just to make sure I get there (ie hold ups on M62/M60), wheras the bike would be the ideal situation.

How much would bike parking cost you?

We live about 15 miles from the airport, happy to stow gear and bikes for a weekend for anyone who needs it (in the garage). if your flights are outside office hours could probably manage a lift if you bribe me with chocolate or wine......

ost you maybe £30 max in a taxi, or £6 on the train from here (about 45 mins, change at Deansgate)

Again, happy to let you leave your bike and gear at mine and can get the train in. £ 2.50 from Bolton, only takes 20 mins. Or sure mother could give you a lift.

Cheers for the offers people

Could quite easily catch the train from stoke - but im working wednesday night and am flying at 1pm, so would be a bit of a rush.
Plus i want to go over in my leathers so i can borrow mum's other half's fireblade whilst im there

Going to give the airport a ring in a minuite and see what parking is avalible.

Will let you know more when i find out more
