@Andre: There's a photo around somewhere from Denver RTD where they compared the space taken up by 30 people in cars (lots), bikes (much less) and a bus (one bus load). I wish I could find it. They did this in the Elitch Gardens parking lot about seven or eight years ago.

I'm just wondering how many of those bikes are actually locked up and if I can steal a green one.
Fantastic! Talk about visualising the huge amounts of wasted space for car parking
@BGW: Indeed!
@Reese: Ha ha!
