Harvard Bikes

1 / 5

As Rideshare Week rolls along, you keep sending awesome photos of your commutes. As promised, we keep publishing them. The above image comes from Derek Galley, who writes, "This is one of multiple bike racks (always full) outside of the Harvard Graduate School of Design, where I am studying urban planning. My bike is somewhere in there. I'd say the prospects are good for the next generation to design for bike riders."

We couldn't agree more.
