Bike share

Vancouver's bike share is up and running! "Mayor Gregor Robertson noted 23 stations are up and running throughout the city, complete with 250 bikes. That infrastructure is available to those who have already signed up, or will do so before the July 31 cut-off date. The city says more than 1,300 members have signed up so far.. The model of bikes being used are described by city officials as “European-styled upright bikes.” Each bike will have seven speeds and a free helmet rental offered. About 2,600 docking points will be available to accommodate additional trips."
