This is the first of three videos StreetFilms will be posting in the coming week about innovative bike parking ideas in the California East Bay Area.

Dave Campbell of the Bicycle-Friendly Berkeley Coalition gives a quick tour of a Bikestation facility in Berkeley -- a bicycles actually have their own parking attendant.
