Philidelphia: improved commute, but a Folding Bike gets you in every time
Philadelphia, which is ranked number one among the ten largest US cities for bicycle commuters per-capita according to the Philadelphia Bicycle Coalition. They just posted an update on the SEPTA Bicycle Policy update. It would seem that the policy only allowed 2 bicycles PER TRAIN; at least that has now been changed to 2 per car. If however you commute with a folding bike, you’re on board no matter what. As they suggest however, be prepared with a copy of the SEPTA bike-n-ride policy to show anyone who may not be aware.

My commute is powered by guacamole & blueberry crisp
I have a Montague folding bike (www.montaguebikes.com) and I’ve been commuting with it in Philly for almost two years. I ride part of the way to work (about 3 miles), then I fold it and take it on the train. When I get off the train it’s only 1 more mile to my office. The great thing about my Montague bike is that it’s full-size when unfolded, but it has the perks of a folding bike for public transit and storage.
