I will be without a car for great stretches of time this spring, and as I live over near St. Charles hospital, I was wondering about the feasibility of taking public transit to the west side of town, then biking to Phil's TH.
I'm sure I'll get some snarky comments as to why don't I bike the whole way? I plan on that at times, but other times I'll take the bus.
My question is, can those chintzy looking bike racks on the front of Bend's buses accommodate mountain bike tires? Are they fairly secure? I've not taken any public transportation since the early 90's.
Here is a rudimentary drawing of how the bike racks work
Has anyone transported their expensive bike on a Bend bus before?
Thanks in advance.
