BICYCLE PARKING
IN DOWNTOWN BOSTON
This is a sample of bike parking in garages and outdoor bike racks in downtown Boston.
Most garages listed here are public. If you work in a building with a private garage, check for a bike rack
that may be dedicated for building tenants only. Ask building management to install bike racks if there are none.
Bike locking tips:
- Consider 3 things when locking your bike: wheels, frame and seat.
- Always catch at least one wheel and the frame -- locking the fork only is not secure. The more U-lock space you occupy, the safer your bike will be.
- Supplement your U-lock with a cable lock for the other wheel, or remove the unlocked wheel.
- Take your quick-release seat with you, secure it with a seat leash, or change it to bolt installation.
