Bike-'N-Ride on Metrorail

Bicycles are permitted on Metrorail (limited to two bicycles per car) weekdays except 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Also see Bike-'N-Ride on Metrobus. Bicycles are permited all day Saturday and Sunday as well as most holidays (limited to four bicycles per car). Bicycles are not permitted on Metrorail on July 4th and other special events or holidays when large crowds use the system.

For the safety, comfort and convenience of all passengers, follow these guidelines whenever you bring a bicycle into the Metrorail system.

• Enter and exit through the first and last—not the center emergency—doors. In an emergency, place your bicycle on the seats and leave it on the train.
• Only regular bicycles are permitted (maximum size 80" long, 48" high and 22" side). No tricycles or training wheels are allowed.
• Use the elevator at all times. Do not take bicycles on escalators. Avoid blocking doorways and aisles. Yield to other passengers.
• Do not ride bicycles in stations, on platforms or trains. Keep both wheels on the ground and the kickstand up. Maintain control of your bicycle.
• If you are under 16 years of age, you must be accompanied by an adult.

(The Metro Bike-'N-Ride Guidelines are available online and in station take-one racks.)

Bicycle lockers are available for $70 for one year plus a $10 key deposit. Click here for a list of Metrorail station lockers and racks and information on applying for a locker.
