Bikes on Buses

1. Squeeze the release handle and gently lower the rack.
2. Lift your bike onto the rack. Fit your wheels into the slots.
3. Raise security handle by pulling lever under the bike and place over top of front tire.
4. To unload, lower handle using lever, remove bike & raise rack if there are no other bikes using it.

1. Always tell the operator that you will be loading/unloading your bicycle. This is VERY important as blind spots may prevent the operator from seeing you.
2. Remember, the operator must stay on the bus and will not be able to assist you with the rack.
3. While you cannot lock your bike to the rack, you may want to lock your front wheel and frame together.
4. MCTS assumes no liability for damage or injury incurred to bikes, personal property or persons using the bike racks.

1. Bike racks can only carry two bikes at a time. They are available on a first come, first served basis. Please wait for the next bus if the rack is full.
2. The racks support bikes with 16" & larger wheel. Recumbent bikes, tandem bikes, three-wheeled bikes & motorized bikes are not allowed.
3. Try to sit near the front of the bus so you're able to watch your bike during your ride.
4. Don't forget your bike! Remind the driver you need to unload your bike when you get off the bus.

Should you forget your bike on the rack, call MCTS Lost and Found at 414-937-3206 or 711 (TRS) and give us the route, location, date and time you lost your bike, as well as a description. MCTS will hold lost bikes for 72 hours before donating them to a local nonprofit. Make sure to write down your bike’s serial number to help MCTS match your bike to you when you report it.
