Found me some Bike Parking



I did some wandering around and located this beauty of a bike rack. This is the real deal here.

The rack is visible and away from where people would normally walk to/from their car so anyone near the bikes would draw attention. There is a nice separation between the traffic and pedestrians too which you can see below. This is nice.

(I switched my bike to the other end to try that out).



The garage can be reached either from W Peachtree (bike lane) or 5th Street (bike lane) or from Cypress (which is the street I've been using). This spot is one I can recommend.

I'm surprised the property managers weren't able to tell us about it, but that's OK. My bike has a new home.

I think I'll still bring it upstairs from time to time. I can't step into an elevator without it automatically starting up a conversation about cycling. I wish I had brought my bike into the building years ago.
