So Aldi Wilkinsburg added the bike rack but it sucks
I don't want to sound ungrateful to Aldi, but their new bike rack feels like malicious compliance rather than trying to actually help their customers lock up safely. The rack is a bad design and it's so close to the curb that you can't even really pull your bike all the way up into the rack. This is like the sort of rack that an elementary school would have in the '90s.
And of course, it's farther from the store than any of the parking spots provided. I tried using it once and subsequently I have just used the disabled parking signs again. Which I don't really like doing because, while I don't think that it's actually going to interfere, the last thing that I want is to make grocery shopping harder for anyone who is disabled.
Their rack at the other Penn Avenue location is so good, why can't they just do that again. Maybe they can design it in such a way that it will actually protect their windows next time one of their driving customers decides that the store should have a drive-through.
Any ideas of what to do here?
