This particular cyclist has not been waiting for bikes to be allowed on trams. He thinks it is a very bad idea. He uses trams quite a lot, and has difficulty remembering the last time he thought ‘there’s a bit of space going to waste, it would be just the place to put a bike’. Have you ever been on a tram at 5pm on a weekday, or at the weekend? They get full, there is no space to put a bike, having a bike on there is just not fair on any of the other passengers.
Who are these cyclists who want to put their bike on the tram? Why do they think it is a reasonable thing to do? Why don’t they just ride the damn bike? After all we have all these lovely new bike lines all over.
I really, really hope they don’t allow bikes on trams.
Please just stop and have a proper think before declaring that bikes on trams is the future. (you are welcome to borrow my tram loving daughter who uses a wheelchair and see what it’s like getting her home on a day when United are playing and then try adding bikes into the mix)
I thought The Mill was so much better than this - what happened to balance and taking everyone’s needs into account?
Allowing bikes on trams is a very bad idea. There is no room. And it seems to defeat the point of cycling. It will lead to arguments and anti-social behaviour.
I wish I'd known about the frogs' evening earlier. I've just seen it but there are no more tickets left. My grand daughters have loved those frogs since they were toddlers (The girls, not the frogs). Ignore the dinosaurs and mummies - straight to the frogs every time. They were gutted when the museum closed for so long.

I wouldn’t dream of trying to get my non folding bike on a tram, unless I had a minder of course!
The trams aren’t designed to accommodate bikes and imagine the chaos if several cyclists wanted to board.
I await the result of the trial with interest.
Anything except Hacienda/Factory Records/Madchester for Unesco Cultural Heritage status please
