No Bikes on Government Property
Not only did I not find any bike racks at the Putnam County Courthouse Annex in Greencastle, IN (an old school building about six blocks from the square), bicycles are not allowed on the property, according to this sign near the entrance.
Whenever I see those signs where I'm going -- and I see a great many of them, I make sure to cable-lock my bicycle directly under the sign if possible. If not, I lock it within eyeshot.
I once saw those signs all over a strip mall, and one store had a bicycle rack out front. Irony, defined.
Same thing goes for the parking decks here in ILM. I complained, but nothing has been done and I imagine nothing will. Of course, what do you expect from morons who don't know that 'skate boards' is actually one word?

Another example of bikes being viewed as toys or recreational, along with skateboards, and rollerblades. Not seen as a legitimate form of transport.
