What Makes This Bike Share Different

Several features make our city’s bike share truly one of a kind. We’ve customized the app to spotlight local businesses worth exploring, turning every ride into a curated experience around town. Our bikes are purpose-built for our environment, featuring airless tires and carbon belt drives for a smoother, low-maintenance ride. The app also functions as a self-guided tour — simply tap on a business and get turn-by-turn directions from your location right to their door.

These are just a few of the details that set this program apart.

Point To Point

We’re excited to launch a full point-to-point bike share system, letting riders start in historic downtown and end at the lighthouse station—or anywhere in between. With multiple docking options across the city, you can explore at your own pace without worrying about returning to your starting point.

Whether it’s a quick stop at a café, a visit to local shops, or a longer scenic ride just to enjoy the day, this system will make it easy to plan your route, hop on and off, and discover new spots along the way.

Will we have a way of knowing how many bikes are available?

Yes! You will easily be able to see how many bikes are available at each station by simply tapping the stations pin in the app.

How many stations are opening in the city?

The system will feature 14 tower stations strategically located throughout Uptown, Historic Downtown, West King, Lincolnville, and Anastasia Island. These stations will offer a total of 148 docking slots, thoughtfully distributed across the city to ensure convenience, accessibility, and practical use for all riders.

Will there be docking spots other than the 14 tower stations?

Yes and that's the best part! We are looking to place between 30 to 60 single bike docking stations at businesses around town. Bringing you right to the door of our favorite spots around town.
