Rolling it through the store until they install bike racks is a great passive aggressive approach.
One place I lived was close to a semi-suburan mall. Despite being on a major intra-city bike lane, there was a single bike rack tucked in the delivery area.
I also learned from my new neighbor that you can just install bike racks wherever you want. He just buys the pole like ones and installs them wherever he wants parking.
He just buys the pole like ones and installs them wherever he wants parking.
Fucking genius. I 100% believe it would work and that nobody would ever even question it as long as you threw on a high vis vest while installing them
He doesn’t even high vis. Shows up on his bike, slaps in the tapcons, then locks his bike and goes for a shop.
I’ve only seen one of his poles get removed, but it was replaced with an official city one.
My city also lets you call and request one anyway, he just doesn’t like waiting. Edit: request are actually handled by the burroughs and differ slightly.
