As value-added service, CAT offers routing information and smart cycling advice to attending bicyclists. We try to keep it simple: air for the tires and water for the rider.<\/p>\n<p>Once signed in, a CAT volunteer will park the person&#8217;s bike.\u00a0Only CAT volunteers are permitted into the bicycle parking area to place bicycles in racks.<\/p>\n<p>Our current model requests a high-visibility area near the entrance or trail access area of an event, preferably with limited background noise (such as generators, engines, traffic, etc.)<\/p>\n<p>To control access and minimize theft, we request fencing or roped off boundary with a single opening. We have banners and signage to direct bicyclists to the bicycle parking area.<\/p>\n<p>If you are planning an event and are interested for CAT to operate a bicycle parking station, please contact us for a consultation.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-2077 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lvcat.org\/lvcat\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_0054-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.car-free.org\/lvcat\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_0054-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.car-free.org\/lvcat\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_0054-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.car-free.org\/lvcat\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC_0054-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CAT has a long history of providing friendly bicycle parking at Lehigh Valley events; offering convenience and enjoyment, as an alternative to traffic congestion and costly parking fees.
