Bikes on Buses
Check out our video from the 17th annual Bike to Work Day and see bicyclists competing to load and unload their bicycle onto an AC Transit bike rack in the fastest time.Hundreds of bicyclists use AC Transit every day. With 105 bus lines, including 27 transbay lines to San Francisco and the Peninsula, AC Transit can really extend your range. Whether you are commuting to work or school, heading out to a regional park or bike trail, or simply want an easier way to negotiate that big hill or congested street, AC Transit can help get you there.
All AC Transit buses are equipped with front-mounted racks that hold two bicycles. On our big, green commuter coaches, two additional bikes can be stored in the cargo bays (one bike per bay) when the front rack is full. (On selected commuter coaches crossing the San Mateo and Dumbarton bridges, custom-made undercarriage racks allow four additional bikes to be stored.)
Folded or collapsed bicycles may be carried on board anytime, as long as they do not block seats or aisles.
AC Transit is not responsible for loss of or damage to bicycles being carried on District buses.
