Since 2006, BEST’s (Better Environmentally Sound Transportation) Bike Valet has been providing professional, secure, coat-check style bicycle parking in and around Metro Vancouver. The Bicycle Valet offers convenient and secure bicycle parking for FREE to cyclists and self-propelled vehicle users at Lower Mainland events throughout the year. Think of us as a coat check for bikes, but way more fun. Every bike we park is one more car off the road and one more person who discovers how great it feels to roll to a community event. The Bicycle Valet volunteer attendant position involves a number of different responsibilities in setting up and dismantling bicycle parking facilities. As a key team member, you'll welcome cyclists, securely park bicycles, and happily provide information about the Bicycle Valet service.
