Bike Rack, Main Street, Downtown - Bothell, WA - Bicycle Tenders on Waymarking.com

In the downtown section of Bothell, on the south side of Main Street, is a metal bike rack with several adornments.

The rack has three posts and two bars at the top that connect them together. Part of each post is a bended bar that provides half circle loops to put your cables through. At the top of each post is an object in metal. One is a letter pinned by a metal curly-Q, which contained a letter to the publisher from "Billy Bugghaus" that complained about the mail and result in the real person, Bill Guernsey, being whipped by the Assistant Postmistress (see link below). One is a log, in remembrance to Bothell's pioneer days as a logging town. And the other is a barn.

There is public bus transportation that serves Bothell, but could not determine if they take bikes. There is a bike path that is accessible from the Park at Bothell Landing about two blocks south.
