    I park right outside the door of CoCo office, on the path outside.

    Along the top of Eyre Square is the traditional bike parking place, and I park mine here now: https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Woodquay,+Galway,+Ireland&hl=en&ll=53.274608,-9.050419&spn=0.00112,0.003098&sll=51.017507,0.556655&sspn=0.018709,0.049567&oq=woodquay+gal&hnear=Woodquay,+County+Galway,+Ireland&t=m&layer=c&cbll=53.274608,-9.050419&panoid=6k7qplPCrXuHfUwM5LdMZw&cbp=12,71.68,,0,0&z=19

    There's a bay in Woodquay as well, right in front of the park, here: https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Woodquay,+Galway,+Ireland&hl=en&ll=53.276244,-9.053128&spn=0.001119,0.003098&sll=51.017507,0.556655&sspn=0.018709,0.049567&oq=woodquay+gal&hnear=Woodquay,+County+Galway,+Ireland&t=m&z=19&layer=c&cbll=53.276244,-9.053128&panoid=s9wo_nkyeRDjYuE4NmMx3g&cbp=12,357.52,,0,0

I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    Same as galwaytt, I always park at the door of the CoCo offices when I go in there. If you really need to lock it, there are bike racks outside.

    Wow! I never knew about that space in Woodquay. I walk past there a lot and never noticed it before, maybe because there's often cars parked there.

    If there's a car in it, ring Mill Street Gda Station, or phone City Hall, and one of them will come down and ticket/tow it. I've seen it done on the one at the bottom of Shop Street.
