The Duluth Transit Authority will offer free rides to bicyclists using its Bike & Bus service on Friday -- Bike to Work Day.
DTA buses are limited to two or three bicycles per bus on their external bike racks, depending on the model of bus. Passengers are responsible for loading and unloading bicycles.
In addition, bicycles are allowed onto buses at the driver's discretion whenever external bike racks are in use and space is available on the bus.
The DTA introduced the Bike & Bus program in the spring of 1994 in an effort to improve passenger services and meet the growing popularity of cycling in the Twin Ports. DTA buses transported a record 20,107 bikes in 2008.
