As seen in St. Pete
I certainly applaud all the steps the city of St. Petersburg has taken in the past few months to improve the cycling infrastructure, but I can't help but be disappointed by the site of these damaged staple racks. I couldn't tell if they were bent by a vehicle or not, but the fact that they are bolted to the ground instead of being sunk into the concrete is disappointing. Not to mention they are placed across the street from any shops. I've never actually seen anyone use these except for maybe major downtown events.
Would you lock your pride and joy here? I wouldn't.
