Thanks, Jonathan. Two stations with electric assist bikes would be a good model for Morgantown to follow with our hills and two separated campuses. If University of Tennessee can do it, so can WVU: WeGo!

In this same webinar, R.J. Eldridge, Director of Planning for Toole Design Group and Mauricio Hernandez, Transportation Planner with Toole Design Group discuss the results from a guide they were in the process of preparing along with PBIC through a cooperative agreement with the Federal Highway Administration. Recently, the completed comprehensive guide was released to the public: http://www.bicyclinginfo.org/promote/bikeshareintheus.pdf .
Additionally, several Bike Sharing resources can be discovered at http://www.bicyclinginfo.org/bikeshare .
One of my favorite bike sharing links is http://www.cycleushare.com/ - "CycleUshare is the country’s first electric bicycle sharing system. It merges two technologies, e-bikes and bicycle sharing, making shared electric bicycles available to students, faculty and staff at the University of Tennessee."
Here is a link for a infographic for Capital Bikeshare that the Recreation Division of the National Park Service put in their recent newsletter: http://library.constantcontact.com/download/get/file/1103573720641-160/CabiS...
