Bike Sharing Starts in Bend, Bikes by Bendvelo

Bend likes to think its great, but its not exactly bleeding edge on trends that are happening in big cities.  Bend does usually come around though, case in point is a bike sharing program.  We have now got one!  It is small and limited but its a start and Bendvelo has provided the bikes!  Commute options is behind the program, their idea is lead by example and to help others do the same.  J. Livingston Bikes are perfect for bike sharing programs, Last year Bendvelo supplied the bikes for a ride sharing program in Madras too. KTVZ has the story:

Don’t we have enough bike shops in Bend? Why another?

Bend Oregon is a wonderful cycling crazy town. We have great bikes shops, great trails and very accomplished racers and riders that call Bend home. But do we have a shop that meets the needs of the practical biker? Do we have a shop that can steer you toward the best Dyno light system for your needs. Or, sell you a practical bike made from recycled parts that can carry 2 kids or a load of groceries from the farmers market? My answer is YES, we do now. Bend Velo, the practical bike shop.
