Feeling sad to update you all, *Forum has removed any and every support for cycle parking within the campus* :-( !!!!
Today after being totally wasted after the Harohalli ride, I went to Forum to catch some food and rest... The security guys rejected my entry!! :-( When I reminded them of the TV9 coverage, they denied having said anything about allowing cycle parking!!!! When I told them that I had parked the previous week after paying 15 rs, and I offered the money too, they told me that the rules have changes!!!! Quite funny!!!
Being totally tired and hungry, I went to a local Shanti Sagar to have lunch. After that I was waiting to catch up with Manish (had to buy some stuffs for our Nilgiri Ride) near Forum at a bus shelter and had a nice sleep keeping my head on the seat :)..
But the Forum incidence was real funny!!! God only knows when people change their decisions!!!!
So hence forth I am not going to keep an expectation from Forum for Cycle Parking, and also decided never to visit Forum again.. (atleast untill unavoidable)..
Rao, I thing the whole effort went to a complete waste.. :-(

Prestige Group operates the Eva Mall and The Prestige Meridian
Complex, at both the places, there is a dedicated area for cycles and
there is no charge for parking you cycles there. I use both these
places on a daily basis. I think the best way to wake up the Forum
guys is to jam their entry till they let us it...What say?

Thanks for the input... I am in for teaching them the lesson. But I do
somewhere get the feeling that if we do something like that, then on the
name of law and order disruption and/or trespassing things can turn ugly!!.
Lets find a better and convincing solution for the problem...

Prestige Group operates the Eva Mall and The Prestige Meridian Complex, at
both the places, there is a dedicated area for cycles and there is no charge
for parking you cycles there.
I was also allowed parking at OASIS, koramangala, in the open with other
Oasis employee's cycles..

A better sol would be to invite media persons ( some TV channels) at
Forum. Wear green caps and try entering in the mall. Media will
capture it and it would help :)
