Do they know it is illegal to ride bikes on sidewalks in Waikiki and the Downtown business district? Do they know that if there is a bike lane they must ride in the bike lane? The bike stands use up valuable sidewalk space for pedestrians. They reduce parking in commercial areas where businesses rely o drop in customers, those who park for a short period of time. This is pitting citizen against citizen. At least the Kapiolani Park group stopped the stands there and one condo put an end to it in front of their building. 

It is not safe to ride bikes on many streets, it is not safe for pedestrians if bikes are on the sidewalks. Instead, let's put the bikis  on the useless rail tracks. 

And the PR stunt at Richards and Hotel streets was heavily attended by elected officials, not the presumably bike riding public.
