Try bikesharing. It’s an innovative transportation program ideal for short distance point-to-point trips providing users the ability to pick up a bicycle from a dedicated bike station or by locating a dockless bike via app and return it within the system’s service area.

If commuting all the way from home to work by bike seems daunting, it’s not cheating to make the distance more manageable by adding BART to your commute. Although bikes are now allowed on BART at all times, there are some rules to be aware of:

• Bikes are never allowed on crowded cars
• Bikes are not allowed in the first car
• Bikes are not allowed in the first three cars during commute hours
• Folded bikes are allowed in all cars at all times
• Bicyclists must use elevators or stairs, not escalators

To read the full list of rules, visit the Bikes on BART webpage.

The Pleasant Hill BART Bike Station is directly across from the station’s main entrance and provides 24-hour access to secure indoor bike parking. Access requires a BikeLink card (available at the Bike Station). Retail sales and bike repairs are available weekdays from 7am-11am.

The 511CC Bike Rack Program provides bike lockers and racks for business sites, retail centers, schools, colleges, and public buildings to support and encourage bicycle use.
