Concert on the Square Bike Valet

For anyone who has recently biked downtown during Concert on the Square you most definitely know that there is never enough bicycle parking. At these events every tree, post or pole has a bicycle locked to it. As a result 20by2020 has decided to offer bike valet for Concert on the Square on July 21st.

20by2020 is a community organization working together to increase the quality of life in Madison through bicycling. We are offering free, friendly, and convenient Valet Bike Parking service at Concert on the Square on July 21st. It's like a coat check for bikes — show up, hand over your bike to the 20by2020 bike valet, and go enjoy the event — no need to worry about the safety of your bike, relax, we'll keep a close eye on it till you come back! The Bike Valet will be located at the top of West Washington. It opens at 5:30, closes at 9:30. There will be a fee cupcake and cup of coffee to the first 100 people who arrive at the event by bike. Remember biking to the event = guilt free cupcake.

In addition there will be an informational tent about 20by2020. 20by2020 started when a group of Madison civic leaders took a trip to Northern Europe to study state of the art bicycle infrastructure. Many of these trip participants, including Susan Schmitz president of DMI and Kevin Hardman executive director of the Wisconsin Bike Fed, will be at Concert on the Square to answer your questions about what they learned and how they will bring those ideas back here to Madison.

We look forward to seeing you there.
