Your city buses with bike racks?

[Groundhog]

There is a 2-bike rack on every city bus in Tucson, AZ, and I never count on being able to use one because they're so often full!

Seattle and suburbs are like that...they're often full.

I use the bus for part of my commute. I ride to the express bus flyer stop, put the bike on the front and then ride the remaining few blocks to my office. On the way home I reverse, but get off earlier and ride a longer distance home. My commute is 17 miles in very heavy traffic. The trail goes part-way but I could never commute if I had to ride the whole way. The bus makes it do-able.

DH and I are talking about riding our bikes to the bus, getting on the bus and going downtown, then getting on a ferry and going on a vacation tour...all without using a car!
