Does LEED have any requirements on spacing or the type of bike racks used? What about security?

LEED does not prescribe the type of bicycle rack that should be used or the spacing between them, or the location. However, if you want to provide the best options possible for your bicyclists, look at bike rack design and capacity figures with a skeptical eye. So-called "wheel bender" and "wave" racks, for example, do not provide much security, and can become overcrowded. Some form of locking defines "secure"—choose what is appropriate for the project and location.
