Bike Friendly Rahm Removes Navy Pier Bike Racks

Thank you Rahm. Our bike friendly mayor removed the bike racks in the protected drop off area at the far east end of Navy Pier. The only bike racks out east on Navy Pier are at WBEZ, which were over half full on a week day in March, 2015.

"To me, this is one of the instances where a great, independent, bicycle advocacy group could really be beneficial to getting this new policy changed."

I'll second that idea. Chicago needs a strong bicycle advocacy group.

ha, just tell the guard you're going to WBEZ, and the north side of the pier magically opens to bicycle traffic. Green Fest is taking this year off, but I'm sure World Music Festival Chicago will be back this fall. That's one reason to ride to Navy Pier.
