This initiative started with a group of dedicated University of Waterloo students who realized the many benefits associated with cycling and bike share systems, and wanted to share this information with others. We called our initiative University of Waterloo Bike Share.
Initially, the plan was to advocate for an on-campus bicycle share system. After some time, we quickly realized two things.
1) Bicycle share systems are more successful when implemented on larger scales and
2) Many people in the Region of Waterloo, including residents, businesses, and organizations, expressed a strong interest in a larger scale bicycle share system.
Therefore, we decided to broaden our scope and advocate for a larger scale bicycle share system, that appeals to all those living within the Region of Waterloo. We've rebranded our website and social media outlet to reflect these changes.
