View from Clare's hotel room, down to the main Muenster Train Station. The triangular glass building is the entrance to a huge underground staffed cycle centre.
Closer view of the Cycle Centre, and much street-level cycle parking. You can just make out a (real) piano, with (real live) pianist, suspended in the glass building.

Another entrance to the underground cycle park

Prices for the Cycle Park

View from the bottom of the main entrance
Two-thirds of one row - and there were about 8 rows. Bikes on the upper story do not need to be lifted manually - there were two kinds of contraption to lift the bikes.

Upper-story bikes - suspended by two hooks, around handle bars and seat post.

The other kind of mechanism for raising bikes, which are on a solid runner that slides forward.

A clamp locks the wheel into place, to stop the bike rolling out
