    Folding bikes rule!I own a Dahon Speed 8 and my husband has a Brompton: we love them and ride them nearly all the time (both of us are bike commuters). Thanks for the Bike Friday review! FYI: the San Jose, CA airport is pretty bike-friendly and many people actually use the airport access roads to shorten their commute if they work in the area. http://www.sjc.org/travelers/tips.html has some more information - scroll down and click on 'Bicycles and Pedestrians' for their thoughts on the issue.

    That solar bike in your link Greyflcnis one of those goofy things you see now and then when someone photoshops some idea they have. Real world engineering prototypes never work as anticipated.
    My daughter's shiny new bike was just stolen. Get a good lock.

    Urban bike parkingThis might be harder in larger urban areas, but the Madison, WI airport just has a "two-wheeled parking" section in the lot, with a few mopeds and a tangle of bikes locked to the rack. It seems like it just shouldn't be that hard.
