Show HN: A site to quickly find bike parking
For some reason, I couldn't find a simple site where I could see if there's bike parking where I'm going.
It's nothing crazy for now, but still in progress. The data is collected both from cities for the ones that have it, but also using Street View with image recognition (by AI and humans).
Working on adding user-reported locations as well.
I'm open to suggestions :-)
- noisycarlos 3y agoI guess I should also mention that you can request coverage in your area via the 'Request Coverage' button. Several of the big cities are there, but we're still working on adding coverage.

- noisycarlos 3y agoThose are pretty cool, and have a lot of info. But I've found that having all that info makes them really slow to load and harder to read, especially on mobile, plus you can't search for destinations like a coffee shop, or market, etc. Just an address, city, etc. On our site, you can enter a destination for example 'Arclight Theater Hollywood' then find the nearest parking. Double-tap it and it sends you to Google or Apple Maps, so you can quickly get directions to get there.
