Hey, Can someone please tell me if bikes are allowed in the commons? Are there places to lock them? Is it reasonable to bike to Epcot from there? Do tell. Thanks Allan
You can lock your bike outside the commons. I think you not allowed to have them inside. But I definitely wouldn't recommend to go by bike to EPCOT.
Epcot would probably take you somewhere around 45 min-1 hour and even then I don't think there's really any place to lock it up. You CAN'T bring it into the commons, you have to lock it up across the street (to a tree or a post or something).
There are actually bike racks about halfway between the commons and chatham now. Really random spot since there's nothing there but road and fence, but it does give you somewhere to lock up your bike and it's about a 5 minute walk. I've also seen bike racks backstage at one of the parks but I can't remember which park I was at that day.
Ah yes I forgot about that rack, closer to the commons and there's a bench there too. http://maps.live.com/default.aspx?v...&lvl=1&tilt=-90&dir=0&alt=-1000&scene=3934196 Here's a satalite pic of it all... you can see the bench/rack area (white square in the bottem right cornere) and the only entrance/security to the commons in the top left.
Depends on where you are in it I'd assume... the WDW resort certainly isn't made for biking and for some reason they are trying to discourage people on the programs from doing it as well.
