My son wanted to browse with his holiday dollars at
the new Target. I 
have a difficult time saying no to his requests even
if I have been a 
critic of the city using millions of tax dollars for
this project. What 
could I do now, its built and we might as well see
what all the fuss is 
about. What was the final total on this project? Not a
bicycle rack to 
be found. In the future I would hope the city
officials that agree to 
subsidize these types of projects would also include a
simple bike rack 
as apart of the multimillion-dollar agreement. Thank
you to the 
Metropolitan Transit Commission for adding bike racks
to the buses. We enjoyed 
the bus ride home.

(JC) Subsidy or no subsidy, I am aghast that I must
park my bike to a signpost outside of Target - how
uncivilized.  The number of bikes on the road and
parked at busy stores is directly proportional to the
civility and livability of a place.  A graceful bike
rack outside of Target would speak volumes to that
end.  

The question is not whether but when Target
corporation will install bike racks outside of their
downtown store.  Kudos to Ken for bringing up what has
irked me on many occasions.  If anyone from Target is
reading this, do your civic duty and help get us some
bike racks.
