Indy staff bemoan lack of cycle spaces

This just in: Roger Alton has broken a pencil. Just kidding, Rog. Monkey bets you're more of a Mont Blanc kinda guy. However, word does reach Monkey's ear that staff on Alton's bike-friendly Independent have been given just a handful of spaces in which to park their rides in the paper's new digs at the Daily Mail's Derry Street HQ. The spots were apparently dished out on a "first come, first served" basis, mainly to the initial tranche of Indy employees to make the move from Canary Wharf. However, others, including the paper's cycling writer, Simon Usborne, have been left looking for alternative parking spots. Perhaps Indy staff could double the number of spaces available – by learning to ride a unicycle to work instead?
