The Harwell Campus has three cycle repair stands, two of which they will be installing in the next few weeks.
One stand will be located close to the entrance of the RAL main gate and the other at the Harwell Pavilion, Thomson Entrance. The third stand will be installed at a later date once the Campus develops.
The cycle repair stands were donated by the County Council who bought them from the grant they were given by the Government’s Local Sustainable Transport Fund.
An idea would be for HarBUG to have a locker next to the stands and keep some consumables and tools for members to use. The stands may have tools attached and may have a pump also, we have received installation instructions for the stand that suggest this is the case but we are trying to confirm this. So suggestions for the locker would be; puncture patches, wipes, lubricant / oil, barrier cream / Swafega / disposable gloves.
We do have funds to purchase the lockers but we will need to decide how to fund items in the lockers on an ongoing basis – something for the AGM, which will be held soon.
Please let HarBUG know whether you think this is a good idea or not and any suggestions for items to be stored in the locker. Items in the locker would be for general cycling use not for specific cycles or cycle genres or advanced repairs.
