    Bring Your Bike

    TPABS shuttles are equipped with bicycle racks that can accommodate two bikes at a time. It’s easy to load and unload your bike:

    Loading Your Bike

    • Squeeze the handle and pull down to release the folded bike rack.
    • Lift your bike onto the bike rack, fitting wheels into the slots. Front wheel slots are labeled. Load your bike in the rack nearest the bus first (if vacant).
    • Pull and release the support arm over the top of the front tire. Make sure the support arm is resting on the tire, not the fender or frame.

    Unloading Your Bike

    • Notify the shuttle operator that you are removing your bike.
    • Pull the support arm off the tire. Move the support arm down and out of the way.
    • Lift your bike out of the rack.
    • If there are no bikes remaining in the rack, return the rack to the upright position.
