I purposefully left that out to avoid controversy, though it is
permitted off-peak in Hamburg, at driver's discretion (i.e. not on a
busy bus), and also as I recall in Amsterdam.

Of course, it is normally quicker to ride a bicycle than to transport
it by bus, so this facility is very rarely used even though it isn't
exactly secret. It would be useful if it was permitted over here for
the purpose of recovering a damaged or vandalised bicycle, however.

The buses on Oahu (The network is catchily called "TheBus") have a bike rack
capable of taking 2 bicycles fitted to the front of each bus.
http://www.thebus.org/ for details. Bit of a spiffy idea I thought at the
time I was there a couple of years ago...
