On a related note, any idea whether any of the local hotels have memberships to use as courtesy options for guests? I'd think that actual usage could be a billable for guests, but, as Diane is unlikely to get a membership in Denver for a short duration trip, so people coming here would be more likely to use them if their hotel gave them an easy option.

I asked about using a Madison pass in Denver but was told at this point there is no reciprocity. It will be great if this pass could be used at other locations in the US as this is where I would utilize it. At this point, it is still a fantasy "in the works".

If I lived in Dodgeville and took the state ride-share service to the GEF bldgs or campus, I'd want a bike during the day to do errands or have lunch. <http://www.livingsocial.com/cities/154-madison/deals/281322-one-year-bike-s hare-membership> <http://www.livingsocial.com/cities/154-madison/deals/281322-one-year-bike-s hare-membership> I'm not sure what kind of marketing B Cycle is doing to these folks, but in DC, and probably other large cities, that seems to be a pretty big market: People that own bikes, but don't bike to work, instead taking the Metro/transit. They want a bike in the city, but don't want to have to store one at work. <http://www.livingsocial.com/cities/154-madison/deals/281322-one-year-bike-s hare-membership> <http://www.livingsocial.com/cities/154-madison/deals/281322-one-year-bike-s hare-membership> Robbie Webber Transportation Policy Analyst State Smart Transportation Initiative <http://www.ssti.us> www.ssti.us 608-263-9984(o) [email protected] ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Bikies mailing list <javascript:parent.wgMail.openComposeWindow('[email protected]')> [email protected] <javascript:parent.wgMail.openComposeWindow('[email protected]')> <http://lists.danenet.org/listinfo.cgi/bikies-danenet.org> http://lists.danenet.org/listinfo.cgi/bikies-danenet.org <http://lists.danenet.org/listinfo.cgi/bikies-danenet.org>
