NYC Parking Woes Trip Up Bike Riders

Subtitle: 
Inside the Pine Water Garage, among the BMWs and Jaguars whose owners pay $20 for up to an hour to park, sit two bike racks with space for eight bicycles. Yesterday, like most days, the racks here, a block from Wall Street, were full.

The racks at the Pine Water Garage, installed a few years back, are for the public -- even though there’s no sign advertising the racks outside -- and the spots are first come, first serve, a parking attendant explained. A sign absolves the garage from any responsibility for the bikes. (Photo: aharon rothschild/metro)

The price is unbeatable: it's free.

If Park(ing) Day inspired you to drop the car in favor of two wheels, you may have noticed another parking problem: it ain't always easy to find a place to lock your bike, either. That's no longer an issue at the Brooklyn Flea, where valet bike parking service, courtesy of Transportation Alternatives, is in full swing. Yes, you can actually hand it over to them, sans lock, and get it back when you're done. Really.
