Notes from Japan: bike parking. Lots of bike parking! In big cities bikes were locked, often using pay-to-park facilities but in smaller cities we rarely saw locks. Bike facilities at transit stations and public buildings often consists of designated areas that may or may not have racks, often with a roof. Almost all bikes have kickstands and most businesses have a bike or two parked on the sidewalk out front vía kickstand deployment. We also saw a couple of large corporations that provide indoor bike parking rooms with capacity for sometimes 100s of bikes. Basically, bike parking is integrated into the general city and building layout in a way that makes it clear biking is an expected mode of transport and parking should be easy to access.
Photos1: pay-to-park área in downtown Osaka; Photos 2-3: typical small town public parking; Photos 4-6 typical small town/city sidewalk parking in front of apartments, homes, and businesses-no rack, no lock.
During our winter break we did a bit of traveling. I’ll share a few things in the coming days but let’s start with a bike we saw at the Shimano Bike Museum in Sakai City, Japan. This 1930s milk delivery bike from the Netherlands had to be a beast to ride. Take a close look at that steering linkage. According to the museum description it was not recommend for hills but hey it’s part of a pretty cool cargo bike heritage, don’t you think? #cargobike #gotmilk #bicyclemuseumcyclecenter
Howdy folks! Just a little reminder about our holiday schedule. Please excuse us while we take a wee break...see you before 12/24 or after the New Year.

How smart is that! Custom tape on the @ternbicycles #GSD #Clubhouse! Our customers know how to roll! #colorisfun #drawingoutsidethelines #cargobikesrock #cargobikersrock
This #custompaint embellished @larryvsharry #Bullitt with @rideshimano #Alfine and Gates @carbondrive is going to its home today. The tall, young owner chose a cargo bike instead of a car as his primary transport. Kids today...some of them are pretty cool! #nocarforyou #cargobikesrock #nothanksI’llride #poweredbyburritos
So many colors! Why? Colors are fun. But it’s not just the colors that make a @larryvsharry #Bullitt fun to ride. It’s dozens of details from frame design to component selection that combine to put lasting smiles on Bullitt Roseta and passengers alike. #iheartcargobikes
We’re taking a holiday day to be with friends and family. We’re open today until 6pm, then closed until Friday. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
This beauty of a @larryvsharry #bullittcargobike is on its way to its new owner. Won’t he be happy: cool custom mint powder coat, extra tall stem and seatpost, quality @rideshimano components, dyno hub and lights. Schwalbe tires. I predict zillions of fabulous #familyriding miles ahead.

A few of the amazing volunteers from @portlandstreetmedicine stopped by today to pick a bike we donated so they can visit areas that might be inaccessible by automobile. Hearing of our donation two other shops stepped up with donations too. Kudos to @rcbpdx and @pedalbiketours for the helmets, locks, lights, and non-cargo bikes!  #thisiscommunity #buildcommunity #bikehelpers #bikesthatserve #volunteers #volunteersmakeithappen
