There are a few spaces behind the boothen/main stand corner - i've attached an image from google failing that, i would be surprised if there wasn't any at the gym/power league nearby you could use View AttachmentMy kids have cycled to a few games along the canal path and that’s where we leave the bikes - there’s always been a good amount of space when we do it. You do have to walk the bikes back through the crowd over the bridge at the end of the game but by the time you get to the path it is definitely possible to start cycling again.

Like caravans, bikes shouldn't be allowed on the road. And people shouldn't be allowed to have more than 2 kids and kids shouldn't be allowed in supermarkets. I have 4 kids and I agree with all of your points bar one. Caravans have to be allowed on the road 😅

Just wondered if any on here do this? Not sure what facilities are available at the Bet 365 (if any) for secure cycle storage. I've never noticed any, but have never really looked for them tbh. Checked the website, but there's nothing on there that I can see. Cheers for any replies. You don't say where you're cycling from? From around 2006 I've cycled from Audley. At that time there were a few bike stands on the corner of the family stand before it was redeveloped. I've tried several routes and routines, to efficiently get to and from the ground in all weathers. Going to BET365 I come via the main road from Newcastle, through Stoke, along Campbell Road, over the flyover, past incinerator and ground and up to Hem Heath cricket club where I've always found space for a bike and change out of sweaty and sometimes wet clothing before a few pints. Before the match I secure my bike to the railings below the car franchise opposite the ground, taking lights off. I usually get searched before entering the ground but have never had any problem with a rucksack with bike helmet, lights, pump etc. At final whistle, I spend a few minutes in the concourse getting changed, and for dark evenings and nights wear flashing armbands, light on top of helmet and head torch. I usually go straight down the A50 and back round to the incinerator roundabout and head for Campbell Road and through Stoke. Campbell road was resurfaced a year or so and is OK but some pot holes going through the centre of Stoke. On a good day its been 45 minutes each way. Getting more like and hour now. You could try leaving your bike at Hem Heath cricket club, go back for a drink after the game, then over the railway bridge to the canal. I'll not be using my bike so much this season. Getting on for 73 and wife worrying about some of the idiots driving late at night (but I've normally found drivers courteous). The plus side has been savings on parking and fuel (After a few seasons, its paid for a season ticket/card). On a few ocassions I've arrived home and some drivers on Radio Stoke have been complaining they're still on the BET365 car park, and of course the health and fitness benefits. Good luck and enjoy.
