***Bike Share Basics: Bike Share will be a new bike-based public transportation option for New Yorkers (16 and over or adults). Members register with the program, pay an annual membership, and can use bikes at any of the program kiosks across the city. The first 45 minutes are no-fee per use: enough time for you to bike to work, parks, grocery stores, libraries, or cultural institutions. When you arrive at your destination, you return the bike to a Bike Share kiosk for the next user.
