INLAND: Driving drop for young adults increases cycling

At the corner of Magnolia Street and Terracina Drive, just off the Riverside Community College campus, empty spots on the front bicycle racks of Riverside Transit Agency buses are becoming a hot commodity.

On a recent day, students snagged the two holders on a southwest-bound bus, leaving another to wait for the next bus to come along.
