Free Bike Valet Service During Livermore Wine Fest

From Alameda County: Alameda County Supervisor Scott Haggerty, along with the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, will join forces once again this year to offer the free bike valet service during this weekend’s Annual Livermore Wine Country Downtown Street Fest, May 19-20. Last year, the event drew an estimated 150,000 attendees, and the bike valet service, operated in part by Bike East Bay, provided a secure, efficient and convenient alternative to commuting by vehicle.

With the increasing strain of finding available parking in downtown Livermore during this widely attended event, festival goers have come to rely on the free bike valet, now in its fifth year in operation, to securely store their bicycles and helmets. The valet is equipped to accommodate 300+ bicycles at any given time. Scooters and skate boards are also permitted to be checked into the “bike corral”. The bike valet will be located once again at the intersection of South Livermore Avenue, between 1st and 2nd Streets, and will be open to accept bicycles from 10:00am-6:00pm on Saturday, and from 10:00am- 5:00pm on Sunday. Also, from 11:00am-2:00pm on Sunday, the Alameda County Bike Mobile will be on site to provide complimentary repairs and tune-ups. For information on the Alameda County Bike Mobile visit http://bike-mobile.org/.
