More Bike Share Programs for Greener Cities

After reading about the cool bike share program in Minnesota, I had to find more.  What a great idea.  Save $, reduce the number of cars on the road, reduce pollution, get in shape.  Take the bus to the museum, pick up a bike there for the ride home!  Cool.

There are programs in  D.C., Capital Bikeshare, as well as Denver,  San Antonio, Nashville, and, coming in 2012,  New York.

Check out the Bike Sharing Blog for more info on bike share programs around the world. And read this NY Times article about successful programs across Europe.

Share A Bike

So I'm here in Minneapolis, enjoying my vacation, and every time I walk around Lake of the Isles I see people riding along the bike path on these cool green bikes.  Turns out you can rent these bikes from Nice Ride Minnesota by the day, month, or year! 


With a subscription you get a key that gives you access to bikes in dozens of locations all over the city.  They're ideal for transportation (it's nice and flat here, so biking around is easy), for exericse, or for tourists like me who want to explore the lakes and parks!


What a great, GREEN idea.
