The fine folks at I Bike Fresno conducted a first for the Fresno AREA over the weekend. Yes "area" because this happened in Clovis. This first was a Bike Valet service at Big Hat Days - the only weekend of the year to even THINK of venturing into Clovis.
It seemed to go rather well. A total of 122 bikes were parked. This is what Saturday looked like. Hopefully they'll be trying it at a Fresno event soon.
Speaking of cool Fresno biking things, some new bike racks for the Tower District are soon to be rolling out to the area, Archop and I Bike Fresno are involved with that too. Gotta say, they look pretty nice:
There are 20 of them and they will be spread throughout the Tower. Sponsoring of the racks will be encouraged and will be a factor on where they're placed. Sponsoring will cost around $200.
