WeHo Pedals Bike Share Launch

August 30, 2016 @ 11:30 am - 2:00 pm

You are invited to join the City of West Hollywood in celebrating our newest transit option with a fun community celebration featuring a ribbon-cutting, music, food, giveaways, and an inaugural group ride!

WeHo Pedals Bike Share is a network of up to 20 stations around West Hollywood with 150 “smart bikes”, featuring the latest in bike share technology.  Customers will be able to check out a bike using a smartphone, a computer, a member card, or by typing in their member number and PIN into the keypad on the bike.  Bikes can also be parked at scores of publicly-accessible bike racks in the large service area for a nominal fee.  The map of current and planned stations is available at wehopedals.com.

Please note: Sign-ups for the ride are first-come, first-served, and are limited to program members, so please register for membership ahead of time and get there early.  Limit 1 bike per person.  Don’t forget to bring your helmet!
