Uptown Bikes Offers Winter Bike Storage for Fair-Weather Riders

For fair-weather cyclists short on space, Uptown Bikes has a new winter storage solution.

Maria Barnes, owner of the shop at 4653 N. Broadway, said she was inspired to offer the option after the vicious winter last year.

For $10, the shop will give bikes a minor workup: wipe them down, lubricate the machinery and fill the tires with air.

Then for $15 per month they'll hang it from a rack on the basement ceiling until owners are ready to hop back on once the snow and ice clears.

For folks who have limited storage and don't ride in winter, this sounds like a great idea.
