Yesterday’s opening of the Eurostar service from St Pancras saw a cycle protest due to the lack of consideration for cyclists in the redesign of the station facilities. But the pressure seems to have had results, with proper cycle racks rushed in at the last minute. See London Cycling Campaign news item.
Also the news item says “Eurostar have now promised to enable customers to reserve cycles onto the same train that they are travelling on rather than the current “within 24 hours” by early 2008, becoming the first high speed service in Europe to permit cycles on all its trains.”
