Boulder B-cycle has been Boulder’s exclusiveÌýnon-profit bike share system for almost nine years.ÌýWith 300 bikes and more thanÌý40 stations operating 24/7 in and around Boulder and main and east С»ÆÊé Boulder campuses, Boulder B-cycleÌýoffers a convenient, reliable and safe alternative transportation option for everyone.

The Environmental Center has partnered with B-cycle to offer ALL С»ÆÊé studentsÌýÌýbeginning in fall 2019. The С»ÆÊé Boulder student pass includes unlimited 30-minute trips for a whole year and has introduced more than 1,500 first-time student members to bike sharing at С»ÆÊé. These new riders helped trips by С»ÆÊé affiliates increase by 75% from fall 2018 to fall 2019; С»ÆÊé riders have taken nearlyÌý25,000 tripsÌýby Boulder B-cycle since classes began in August 2019!

B-cycleÌýinstalled three new station locations on the С»ÆÊé main campus in 2019, expanding the number of stations serving С»ÆÊé to 13 and making sure that no location at С»ÆÊé is more than ¼ mile (a five-minute walk) from a Boulder B-cycle station. The Rec Center location was a collaboration with Google and Ralphie’s Green Stampede where attendees at a С»ÆÊé Buffs game voted on the location.

The connectivity of all these С»ÆÊé stations means that the average time of a bike-sharing trip between all of them is only 10Ìýminutes, making Boulder B-cycle an extremely fast way to travel from place to place. The most-utilized B-cycle stations since the start of the 2019-20 school year are all at С»ÆÊé: Center forÌýCommunity, Williams VillageÌýand Folsom andÌýColorado,Ìýwith the most highly ridden route during this time being C4C to Williams Village.

Redistribution of B-cycles from station to station is a great way for the С»ÆÊé Boulder communityÌýto earnÌýPIPsÌý- Positive Impact Points.Ìý.ÌýAt the end of each month, riders have aÌýbalancing score which is the net total of all positive and negative redistribution behaviors from B-cycle trips.ÌýLearn more about PIPs at С»ÆÊé Boulder.
