The bike rack outside the hospital was choc-a-block full of bikes, but the doctor's surgery for the second appointment didn't even have a dedicated rack -- which struck me as a bit odd, because it is a clinic that promotes healthy living. Maybe I should send a letter to suggest installation of one.

I would... I mentioned it to the clinic I used to go to and they did install one. They even asked me which one I would suggest they put in. At that point there were 2-3 of us that rode there regularly and we would just lock to the hand rail on the outside of the handicap ramp.
