Try A One Way Bike Trip (And Bus Back!)
Maybe it’s too cold in the morning, but the afternoon promises to be perfect for a bike ride. Or possibly the ride to work is an easy downhill glide, while the trip home is an uphill climb. Either way, you can look to the bus schedule to help you out. Each LTD bus is equipped with racks to carry three bikes at no extra charge.
