B-cycle, a bike-sharing program

Some of you have probably heard of B-cycle, a bike-sharing program that is a collaboration between Trek, Humana, and Crispin Porter+ Bogusky. The program is now being implemented in Denver in a few other US cities. Check out the website for more info - http://www.bcycle.com

Greenville could have a shot of implementing the program here. It would help a lot to show them that we have significant community interest though. Please take a minute to go to http://www.bcycle.com/who_wants_it_more and click the “I want it more” button to enter your address and increase the number of people who are interested in bringing B-cycle to Greenville. Make sure you check the box to let the Mayor know you want it as well.

If you click around the map, you will see that many larger cities don’t have all that many votes (Atlanta only has 30 for instance). We can easily skew the numbers if everyone goes to the site and votes for Greenville. Use the “tell a friend” button to help spread the word as well. A bike-sharing program really would be great here.
