That would probably be OK but I'm hesitant to do that much any more with bike theft being as bad as it is. Crime has gone way down in most US cities, but bike theft is as bad as ever in NYC and Boston and a few other places. It must be because bike thieves are some of the stupidest criminals.
Tom, I used a parking garage when I had to go to a training class downtown last year. I recall paying $6 for the day. Was a decent alternative since I didn't know if the training company (or the building mgmt) would let me bring my bike in. It turned out that it was ok to bring it in. So did that for the remaining three days and saved some $.
