Line 1:
'''Bicycle parking''' or '''bike parking''' refers to an area used to station or store bicycles, including bicycle racks and bicycle parking stations. Other typical examples of bicycle parking include bike lockers, bike shelters, and enclosed, secured areas, such as bike cages and bike rooms.
The modest dimensions of bicycles (a standard bike is 6’ or approx. 1.8 meters long with handlebars 2’ or approx. .6 meters wide and approximately 4’ or approx. 1.2 meters tall) allow for more creative and efficient parking solutions than those that can be provided for motorized vehicles. As a rule of thumb, one automobile parking space can provide parking for up to five to ten bicycles.
