Abstract

A bicycle advertising rack which is selectively attached to an existing parking meter, and which may be suitably used for locking up a bicycle in areas such as business areas having few or no bicycle racks or other objects to which the bicycle may be effectively secured. The bicycle advertising rack comprises a U-shaped tube having an upper arm and a lower arm; each having an end having a cylindrical collar affixed thereunto. The post of the parking meter extends concentrically through each of the collars, and forms a closed loop therewith, through which a chain or a U-shaped lock may be extended while “locking” a bicycle to the parking meter. The bicycle advertising rack has two flat plates for selectively displaying an advertisement thereupon.
