Bike-Check™ Portable Bicycle Parking System for All Events
Cycle-Safe has made it possible to solve a problem often faced by special event planners. The challenge is to provide bicycle parking that is secure, easy to transport and set up by volunteers, easy to store, easy for bicyclists to find, and simple to manage. The solution is Bike Check™ Special Event Racks, our modular bicycle parking system. This system is ideal for festivals, concerts, sporting events, bicycle tours, and any other event where bicycle commuting can be anticipated and encouraged.
Bike Check™ provides a means for a "claim check" process for bicycles, a bike corral for valet bicycle parking, and it can be used with or without attendants. This unique, patented bicycle parking system is light weight enough for easy portability and setup, yet strong enough to meet bicycle security requirements. It will even support temporary lighting fixtures and overhead banners. No tools are required for assembly. "Your Special Event Racks were great! Simple...very user-friendly...and the step-by-step instructions were excellent. Four of us assembled the complete rack system in less than an hour. The equipment (is) something that a five-foot, 100-lb. volunteer could move, assemble and disassemble...no problems! Your racks handled more than 600 bikes in a three-day period...mountain (and) road. We called it bike parking in a box!'" -- Lucinda Means Executive Director, League of Michigan Bicyclists More Innovation from the Industry Leader in Secure Bicycle Parking Bike Check™ is a truly modular bicycle parking system, simplifying the task of bicycle parking for even hundreds of bicycles.
