Title: Commuting & Parking into Boston downtown Post by: AMITFERN on August 26, 2011, 05:19:47 AM Hi fellow NEMHA members, I have been regularly commuting and parking in Boston downtown/financial district this summer... and to say the least it is pain in the butt getting a parking spot that is risk free from being tagged... any of you that ride into work downtown willing to share your closely guarded parking tips and secrets???

worked for me! Title: Re: Commuting & Parking into Boston downtown Post by: randomgti on August 28, 2011, 08:18:10 PM I've yet to park there, but I always see a bunch of bikes parked near north station, up on the grass next to the brick wall.

Not sure if Boston PD proper also turns a blind eye to this, or what.
For the two summers that I commuted in on the bike, I'd be parked on a sidewalk somewhere near the office. Our local garage actually had a sign forbidding bikes. There was always tons of space around the Cambridgeside Galleria, and easy to spot other moto-friendly spaces in other sections of Cambridge.
