Des Moines BCycle

Des Moines BCycle BCycle is a bike sharing system. In layman’s terms: BCycles are there when you want one and gone when you don't. It's like Red Box for bikes.

Just swipe your card, grab a bike, and get to where you’re going. Des Moines BCycle is the new way to get around town. Des Moines BCycle members can pick up a bike at any station and return it to that same station or any other station when they’re done. Using their B-cards, members can unlock a bike in seconds. Returning a bike is even easier. Just roll it into a dock and walk away. The onboard BC

ycle trip computer (plus kiosk technology) allows members to track all the miles they ride, the calories they burn, the carbon emissions they avoid, and the dollars they saved by leaving their car parked.
