Hey Folks!

I'm happy to report back to you that after reviewing all of your feedback and talking to our machine shop we decided on an in-house built standard upside-down "U" design welded to two 10 ft. lengths of channel. Once we got the material (Rigid electrical conduit and elbows) the welders were able to toss them together within a day or so and we hauled the new rack off to the powder-coater for a nice green finish. The final product looks great (I think) and as you can see in the picture on it's first full day of service, it was quite popular. 3 mopeds were cabled to the ends of it, and a few bikes in between.

Again, I want to thank all of you for your helpful advice and suggestions. I'm hopeful that the administration will approve of this design and it will actually become the new standard across campus. Time will tell.
