I visit many stores on this route at any given time. I typically use my bike. It is difficult to find places to lock up my bike. I don't think every business needs to have a bike rack. For example, I lock up at the library if I'm going there, or Drug Mart, Blockbuster, etc.

91.9/22/2008 3:14:00 PMI like to go down to Lake because it is green and flows pretty well. ***Lakewood really needs to meet and discuss the wacky proposal for the Shoreway because it will not benefit anyone but one neighborhood in Cleveland and it isn't clear that for the money it will do much for them either. Very important Lakewood has input. Sometimes I come down Detroit and stop for breakfast and Warren and Detroit and park on the street or in the lot and then proceed down to Clifton other times I may go on Detroit, but watch out for a lot of school zones (Lake has fewer). Need the breakfast in Lakewood or stop after work at a restaurant draw for Detroit Ave.
92.9/22/2008 3:18:00 PMDrop kids at school, head to Key Bank, UPS store (park once in City Center lot for both), Library (easy parking), Curves (easy parking in lot). Or ride bike and struggle to find spots to lock it. Definitely need more bike &quot;parking&quot;.
