Bicycle center opens at Union Station

I noticed in the Post this weekend that a new bicycle center opened at Union Station on Friday.

The center, called Bikestation Washington D.C., has 150 enclosed bike racks and 20 outdoor racks. It also features a changing room, lockers, bike repair, bike rental, retail sales and free air for your tires.

Here's the Post's news brief about the bike center from Sunday's paper; here's the preview story, which gives more info.

Bikestation is a secure facility accessible via a membership card. You can pay for as little as $10 for 10 days of access, or as much as $96 a year. Plus there's a $20 annual administrative fee for all members.

The new center sounds like a great idea, because you can bike into town, change and go to work. We'll have to see how much use it gets. Have you seen it or used it? Post your comments!
