The bike shelter near my building at Broad and 4th has some sort of large silver box next to it, with bike sillouette stickers on it, but no sort of labeling.
I saw another at 4th and Gay. There isn’t any sort of labeling on them, so I wonder what they could be.November 14, 2012 6:57 pm at 6:57 pm #519790Graybeak said:

November 14, 2012 7:01 pm at 7:01 pm #519791never used a bike locker but just wondering under what circumstance I would use one vs a bike lock.

I think they are bike lockers?Might be. they are about 3 and a half feet tall, and 4 and a half long. Seem a bit small.
Perhaps some sort of equipment locker for all the SID employees out sweeping and the like.
November 14, 2012 7:29 pm at 7:29 pm #519793Doesnt look to sturdy the way they attached it if those bricks arent locked in you could basically pull it right out, doesnt look like they used stainless steel eithier, good idea just hope it stands up to Ohio weather etc…

Lo2w should be along shortly to tell us why these are all wrong.Sorry, I missed the CU memo on acceptable group think as it relates to wasteful spending when cheaper, better solutions to the same problem exist. Can you forward it to me @ [email protected]?

Can’t deny, you called it.Sorry, I forgot one has to spell everything out so posters like you have a fair chance at comprehending. I assumed snarf was referring to my earlier posts on the bike shelters which I still believe are wasteful spending given cheaper projects that solve the same problem.
These repair stands are pretty cool though. I’d still be interested to see what the stands cost and if they were part of the shelter price tag.
Since you’re so great at digging up past posts, you’re welcome to look at my years of posting and see I’m not always the contrarian snarf paints me as.
