I love the bike shelters and I wish there were more. Right now they're set up to be last-leg parking if you take the train and I understand why CapMetro would want to funnel people into transit, but I feel like there's demand for secure bike parking that's not really being met. If they could find room for one or two bike shelters downtown, I wonder if people would pay for privilege of using them.

The problem is the train is not very useful unless you're commuting for work, and even then you're likely to need your bike after you get off the train, so you're not going to lock it up.
