This store just opened up a few months back, and they had zero bike parking.
I emailed their head office, saying that I was planning to shop there, but not until they added a bike rack.
Went to check last night, and boom! Bike rack!

If you can, send a reply saying thanks or something. It helps get more added at other locations.
I did :) I thanked the head office (where my request was originally sent to) and asked them to pass on my thanks to the store manager.
This particular chain of stores is actually pretty good with bike racks at other locations. But this newly opened store had nothing.
The biggest offender around here is our Shoppers Drug Mart chain. I don't think I've seen a single one of their stores with a bike rack! And they serve as a drop-off/pick up center for Canada Post, so shame on them for not being accessible. I've complained to them for years, so until they add bike racks, I'll just keep walking my bike into the store! 😀
