Does anyone know of any listing of business here, in the Canton/Massillon area that have bicycle racks for patrons to use? I have seen only a few and plan to drive less due to the current state of the economy. My goal is to use less than $20.00 in gas per week limiting short trips to the bike.

I have seen rack in these locations:
Dell's Cyclery
Target in Massillon
Taggart's Ice Cream, Canton
closed Canton Center Mall next to Wal Mart too far away from entrances to anything open for a bike to really be secure
Howard's Men's Wear in downtown Massillon

Ernie's in North Canton has a rack.
Downtown Canton Library
Perry High School (I doubt you will be heading there)
Maybe Fisher Foods on Cherry too but I am not positive.

Bike racks are few and far between in our neck of the woods, I am happy as long as there is something secure to lock my bike up to. Like a parking meter or a decent pole. I wish Canton would install some places to lock up bikes to support riding to work. I am lucky enough that I am allowed to keep my bike beside my desk.

I'll keep an eye out for others. I know that the style of rack usually found around here are usually frowned upon for poor design.

This style seems to be a favorite:
