What’s maddening is that the area surrounding this new store is among the best for dedicated bike paths in the city.
I’ve absolutely brought my bike into stores when they don’t have bike racks, and would if the bike racks were hidden behind a goddamn dumpster!
I only had an issue once at a grocery store, and had to lock my bike up where they told me to… directly on the narrow sidewalk beside the cart location. It was highly inconvenient and a hazard to pedestrians, so I feel bad every time I shop at this one place.
But if I have the option to shop at a place that has sensible bike racks, then I just pick there to shop.
