Rack Plaques


First you can see an example of what a standard Where Ya' Rack? looks like.
One of these will be on at least one side of every single rack installed.
(Jurisdictional differences will change the logo on the right, eg. New Orleans vs Gretna city logos - see below!).

You can see a picture of a real one here!

Now take a look at some of the plaques we've already had made for sponsors.  This should give you a pretty good idea of what is capable with these materials.  If your text or graphics comes in a vector format (Illustrator, SVG, PDF, etc), then we can turn it into a plaque.

Zurich Financial Services sponsored 20 racks for public schools in 2010,
and this is their sponsor plaque for all those racks.  The "negative" image of the logo is sweet.

McDonogh 15 bike racks with plaques.

Whole Foods Arabella Station was another big sponsor for the project, and they have 7 racks all over town.  There are two main designs they used on their plaques.  Because plaques are printed technology, it's easy to change text and logos and have multiple variations of language on different racks.

Also at Audubon Park around the different pavilions, there are numerous Entergy sponsored bike racks.  You can see their plaque design here.

And here you can see the YLC Park-It Starbucks COAST Fund sponsored rack with plaque.
That thumbprint logo comes out quite nicely!

This rack located outside Cake Cafe is simple and to the point - definitely shows what a community can do when they work together.

The Hash House Harriers sponsored 17 racks. They didn't provide a strict guideline for what their plaques should look like, so that gave our designers free reign to come up with their own concepts, and this was one of the 3 that was approved, and subsequently installed at Lafayette Square.

Also at Lafayette Square is a rack with a logo and specific texts from Baptist Community Ministries.

One sponsor didn't want any personal acclaim, but opted, instead for a famous H.G. Wells quote on his plaque to be installed outside of Crescent City Comics on Freret.

Skipper Bond also opted for the "negative" image look with their inverted logo on the left, and the standard text on the right. This style is very catching and popular with sponsors.
