Bike Rack Awareness Contest

As we travel through downtown Greenville, and on to Travelers Rest, we see a great diversity of bike racks. Bike Walk Greenville  challenges you to identify them.

So let’s test the hypothesis that bike racks are under appreciated by having a fun contest of identifying where these bike racks are located.  We will award our Bike Walk Greenville “Think Outside The Car” t-shirts to the three contestants who  provide the most correct answers.  Send your description of where each rack is specifically located to info@bikewalkgreenville.org no later than 6:00 PM on Friday 30 September 2016.  Please provide your name and address as well as desired T-shirt size (S, M, L, or XL) .

The rack numbers are below each photo.  Here is a hint- We can tell you that of these 14 photos, 7 were taken within the city limits of Greenville, 6 were taken in the city limits of Travelers Rest, and one is in Greenville County, but not within city limits.
