Situated on the far west coast of Canada, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is the capital city of the Province of British Columbia. Its benign climate (the warmest winters in Canada) and placid lifestyle make it a favorite retirement location as well as a popular tourist destination. About 400,000 people live in Victoria and adjacent communities.

I like your post today and I would think the city would have a contest for new bike rack designs. What fund that would be and it would also help aspiring artists.

I love bikes and enyed your little portfolio, it always brightens me up seeing bikes and wanting to get out and ride them.
What a strange architectural for a bike park!!! very interesting!! it's the first time i see that!!
Funny they have Chinese character of 'double happiness' on the first picture. But it's the other way around.
heard on the radio today that the new parking meter scheme has a hicup as they will remove the old meters where lots of people locked up their bikes. Now a delay to find new ways to put in new bike racks. They said that something like 14 or so racks would cost like 100,000 bucks. Are they that expensive?
Thanks Abe, Martin and Max for your comments. Special thanks to White Oleander for the translation. It's probably not the writing that is "the other way round" but the photographer. If I'd photographed this bike rack from the street side it would have been reversed.
Postie, I only hope if they are going to spend a lot of money on bike racks that they will engage our local artists in their design and production
