I was thinking the other day how sweet it would be if it was easy to take your bike on the subway.

- mikeash 9y agoThe DC Metro lets you do this, and I've taken advantage a couple of times. It is pretty nice. It vastly increases the effective reach of the network. Unfortunately, they don't allow it during rush hour due to space constraints, so it's not nearly as useful as it could be.
- dsr_ 9y agoThe MBTA allows this during non-rush hour times, and most buses have fold-down bike carriers in front.
