A brief description of the program:
The Big Red Bikes bicycle sharing program is student initiated, student run and partially student funded through the undergraduate Student Assembly and student activity fee. Cornell Facilities Operations provides the remainder of the funding. Support is also provided by the Cornell Libraries and the Cornell Outdoor Education program. The bike share started in May 2011 with 20 bicycles, available for same-day check out at the main library through a web-based management system. The program is open to all active students and employees who register for the program, with no fees for use. There are plans to expand the program with 20 additional bicycles and at least one additional location in the 2011-2012 academic year.
In the first two weeks of operation, the bike share program garnered just over 800 user registrations and logged more than 500 individual "rentals".
