Bikes and transit

Combining transit service and a bike gives you more flexibility, keeps you out of congestion, and expands your recreational bicycling opportunities. For example:

• If you have a long, steep hill in your commute, you can bike downhill and then wimp out and take the bus home.
• If you expect inclement weather on one leg of your bike ride, load your bike on the bus and ride when the weather improves.
• Many bridges have less than ideal bicycle or pedestrian access. By loading your bike on the bus and crossing the bridge you have bicycle access to another area of your community.
• When bicycle parking is available, some people use two bikes and the bus to make their trip. They keep one bike stored at each end of their bus route.
