Bike sharing systems are rapidly expanding to cities around the world from Hangzhou, China, to Minneapolis/ St. Paul to Boulder, CO, and beyond. Bike shares are short-term bike rentals that are available to the public for temporary use. In Minnesota, the Nice Ride MN bike share recently celebrated its one-year anniversary and has been a huge success. Streetfilms recently did a feature on the Nice Ride, and it’s well worth a look.
