I bring this up because I would LOVE for just one store in my area to offer a decent place to lock a bike. Even the LBS doesn't have a bike rack of any kind (they do let me bring my bike inside though).

AMEN. I will only lock my bike in a bike locker. Ever try to find those babies? We need a national law for bikers like the disability acts. It's not optional, major businesses must provide bike locker farms for:
-- shopping malls
-- grocery stores over 1200 SF
-- businesses with more than 30 employees
-- theaters and rec centers of all kinds
-- big box stores

I think someone once said, build it and they will come.
