Tell Amtrak: Let Bikes on Trains!

Bikes on TrainsThe League of Michigan Bicyclists is collecting signatures to tell Amtrak to allow bicycles on passenger trains.  Right now, Michigan is missing out on tourism dollars in and around our state because our trains aren't equipped to allow bicycles.  But many Amtrak routes around the country do--and there's no reason Michigan should be missing out.  Not only will allowing bikes on trains increase our appeal to bicycle tourists, it can also help make train commuting easier within Michigan.  Imagine being able to hop on a train with your bike in Detroit and taking it out for a day ride around Ann Arbor.  Fun, right?

You can sign on to LMB's petition here.  Let's help them get to 2500 signatures!
