CyRide’s “Rack ‘n ‘Roll” bike rack program officially started this week. The four new Gillig Low Floor buses (units 0819 – 0822) that arrived this summer came equipped with bike racks, and lane workers were adding racks to additional buses last week. The program is only a trial run, but its likely the racks will be here to stay. At this point only about a third of CyRide buses have racks due to space restrictions in the garage that is now at maximum capacity (the racks add one foot of length to each bus). So far I have driven two buses that were retrofitted with racks, but haven’t had any passengers use the racks yet. More information is at cyride.com.
