Ring up a rack spot

pw_000678.gif Bicycle Parking Network allows bikers to reserve and pay for bike storage via cellphone, according to Iconoculture.

"Users locate available lockers online and then use their cells to reserve space and retrieve access codes for drop-off and pickup. Customer accounts are linked to cell numbers, enabling automatic monthly billing.

Lockers cost $2 per day, plus a 10% “convenience fee.” The service is available in Denver, at UCLA, and at select stations of San Francisco's BART and Los Angeles' Metropolitan Transit Authority systems."
