EUGENE, Ore. - The valet bike parking lot has been filled to the brim since day one of the Olympic Trials. The lot originally had room for 400 bikes but soon learned they needed a few more spots.

"We were at capacity the first day and then we got some more racks in," said volunteer Rachel Wolfe-Goldsmith. "We had about 450 yesterday."

Volunteers are also warning people to be patient when picking up their bikes. It gets pretty packed around closing time, so be prepared to wait.
