Still no bike parking, but I think it is one of the reasons that plaza is flourishing. All those businesses, I think First Choice is the only chain/non-independent one, seem to be doing well. Chopan Kabob is a regular in our rotation and we frequent a number of the businesses there. Highland Camera just moved in too.
Good to know the gate is open - when I started going a couple summers ago there was no visible point of entry from the trail so since then I've always cut down Patricia. The lack of bike racks is a bigger issue I think - it doesn't make me feel welcome to have to lock my bike to a hydro pole or a metal sign on Highland. In the back of my mind I'm always wondering if my bike is going to get taken away for being chained to something it shouldn't.
