All Bike Board Members,

We're planning on submitting photos for the Saris bike rack by this Thursday or Friday at the latest.  Current locations recommended were: Black Bear Evansdale, Mt State Brewing in the Wharf, and Suncrest Middle. 

Can you please just let me know if you're interested in potentially showing up at one or more of those locations for a photo shoot on your bike in bike clothes?  I'll then follow up with a Doodle Poll to try to schedule this.  Emily Vasile said she would be available on Thursday or Friday to shoot some photos. 

Thanks,

~Derek

A bike corral converts the space of one car parking stall to parking for 10 bikes. It’s a great use of space and a low cost option for more customer parking, it frees up sidewalk space for pedestrian foot traffic and communicates a commitment to bike friendliness. The Hopleaf Brewery is located in one of Chicago’s most bike focused neighborhoods. Many patrons arrive via bike throughout the year. Turning a loading zone into bike parking for 12 bikes has provided a boost for business at the brewery and has added to the streetscape of the neighborhood. The Andersonville bike corral is part of a parklet designed as part of Chicago’s People Spot program. Custom logo plates promote Andersonville’s bike friendliness.
