Bike Rack Photo Contest
Filed under: general, photos
Posted by: The Cyclofiend @ 4:55 pm

One of the enjoyable spots to hang out on the web (when you aren’t drooling over the Current Classics, Singlespeed, Working Bike or Cyclocross Galleries…) is over at BicycleFixation.com.  Rick and Gina have pulled together a nice collection of stories and essays, photos and more. It’s a great honor to be able to point folks over there for what seems to be a pretty cool photo contest. So, without further ado - hot off the mojo wire from RickRise:

Riding a bicycle for transportation inevitably means having to park 
your bike while you shop, dine, visit, work, or play, and in this car-
addled world, especially in the US, that often means a parking meter, 
signpost, fence, or tree serves as your parking structure.

More and more cities and businesses worldwide, however, are making an 
effort to accommodate those of us who travel using the world’s most 
efficient machine, and some of the resulting facilities are 
wonderful…while many are not.

In order to explore what’s out there for keeping our beloved velos 
safe while they await our return, we have decided to hold the Bicycle 
Fixation Great Bike Rack Contest. We are asking you to go out into 
your city and photograph what you think is the finest bike parking 
rack you can find (or the worst!) These must be intentional bike 
racks, installed specifically for bicycle parking.

If you think you’ve seen the best (or worst) in bike rack design and 
placement, read through the details below, take your picture, and 
follow the submission directions at the URL below. Pictures will be 
judged by a panel of experts in urban design, architecture, and 
bicycle transportation, and by popular vote of our readership, and 
three winners will be rewarded with Bicycle Fixation products!
