Mistake number one. Almost any serious bicyclist is not going to let

I don't think they want individual riders standing in the street, in front
of an idling bus, fiddling with a bike rack that may already contain one (or
more) other bikes.
In this regard, I agree with them. The liability insurance issue here
would be even worse than it already is.
That's why as in Florida the racks are simple and the rider puts their
bike on it, not the driver. It sounds like they are a bit too
complicated.
Joyce is an avid bicyclist. I just ride a lot, but I don't think we'd
fit the description of greens although all my monitors are listed as
"green"(enviro friendly). :-))
