The kind that goes on the ground, not on a car. There's several cyclists in my building, and I'd like to get a rack to put on the covered concrete patio so we can all lock up out of the rain. 3-5 slots would be good. Where do you get one of those in Lexington, and how much does it cost?

Bike shops can order them for you, but I don't believe many of them will do installation. Check out www.saris.com for the Wave rack, it's popular and simple, and comes in a variety of powdercoated colors, mounting options and sizes.

If you wanna give a shout to one of our local yokels, Pat "The Welder" Garnett makes racks you see around town at places like the Good Foods Co-Op and West Sixth Brewery out of old bike frames.

Hope this helps!!

Another vote to support your local bike scene and those working within it. Bike Bike Creations is Patrick Garnett and Shane Tedder http://bikebikecreations.blogspot.com/

As James mentioned above, they are the ones responsible for many of the bike racks you see around town constructed from repurposed frames and bike parts.
