Jo-in-NY, have you looked into getting a Tikit? If I were combining transit with biking on my commute, that's what I would get without hesitation.[/QUOTE]


Tulip, I have a bike permit that allows the bike on the train during "non peak" hours.

Although the station that I go to did not even have bike lockers, any station that did LIRR made the DOT remove them and put them on "town" property which could be blocks from the railroad station. Whatever negative things you hear about the LIRR you can believe it. I pay over $300 a month for this also which does include the subway once I am in Manhattan, but the cost will increase soon.

The Mayor of Manhattan has done wonderful things cycling wise in Manhattan. It is too bad he can't do anything with the LIRR and Long Island for that matter.
