Think About Adding Bike Racks

RECEIVED Fri., July 28, 2006

Dear Austin business owners,
    Rising gas prices are driving more of your customers (pardon the pun) to ride their bikes to your establishments. It's easy to see that a lot of Austinites enjoy riding their bikes. It would be nice if you could accommodate and reward such good behavior by providing bike racks. Some of my favorite places do not have bike racks, such as the Austin Diner and Dart Bowl. It's a real drag wandering around looking for a place to lock up and may ultimately be a factor in choosing a business to patronize. Nothing fancy ... just a secure bar embedded in concrete will do. Thanks from your nonmotorized patrons.
