Help get more bike racks in Pittsburgh
One way to help is to ask your employer. Employees are the best advocates and hold a lot of sway in getting racks at their workplace, not only for them, but for their customers. You can explain to your employer that a bike rack for employees provides more car parking for customers. Also, many employers have to provide car parking for their employees, which costs money, so providing secure bike parking will save them some cash (they like that).
Another thing that you can do is ask businesses that you frequent to provide secure parking for thier cycling customers. Explain to them the advantages of putting a bike rack in front of thier business. You can also send them a letter. Business owners will appreciate the fact that you are interested in their business enough to make recommendations on how to improve it.
