The BIXI bike share program that’s been so successful in Montreal has begun taking hold in other cities; the first expansion city is Minneapolis.
I’ve used the BIXI bikes myself, and I think this is a great implementation of bike share: well-designed bikes, easy-to-understand rental system, pricing that’s advantageous for heavy users, hardy infrastructure.
