Bikes on Light Rail: OK Anytime!

CATS has changed their initially-announced policy that restricted transport of bicycles on LYNX light rail vehicles. LYNX riders may now bring their bicycles on board at any time!

Complete bikes-on-LYNX information is available here. Note that there is still a restriction: no tandems, and of course, no motorized vehicles.

This is an important change, because LYNX replaces some bus routes. The original policy would have been a step backwards for cyclists, eliminating "Rack-n-Ride" service for patrons whose bus lines were replaced.

If you're a cyclist who may use this service, why not let CATS management and your City Council representatives know that you appreciate the change?
