safe, secure, easy bicycle parking

"Valet parking a safe option for cyclists" said the Vancouver Sun about The Bicycle Valet at the beginning of July 2011, when we had still parked only 7,500 bikes, just one third of the season total. And still, none lost, stolen, or damaged!

The Bicycle Valet was featured as an innovative program as part of the effort to green The RBC Canadian Open Golf Tournament held in Vancouver in August 2011

Volunteer Opportunity!

The Bicycle Valet is currently seeking outgoing, fun loving, active Volunteers for our next season.

 

It's a GREAT chance to have fun, meet people, be part of some lively summer festivals, gain valuable work experience—and, on top of that, receive some awesome gifts.

The Bicycle Valet makes event bike parking simple.  Part “coat check”, part parking lot for bikes and other non-motorized transportation, it is an easy and safe bicycle parking solution at community events of all sizes.

Responsibilities: As a Volunteer Bicycle Valet Attendant, you will help set up or dismantle the bicycle parking area, as well as park bicycles for the event attendees.

Shifts: Volunteer positions are most often on the weekends, with shifts occurring in 4 hour or 8 hour periods.

If you are interested in being part of this innovative and popular program please contact our The Bicycle Valet, Volunteers will be accepted throughout the summer season.
The Bicycle Valet is a program of Better Environmentally Sound Transportation.  For more information visit our web site at www.best.bc.ca.
