As gas prices surge and you’re tempted to leave your car at home and take your bike, I hope you do so.
What if your destination is too far to bike to but your friends’ or family’s destination isn’t? Would you lend them your bike so they can leave their cars at home?
If you need to figure out how one would schedule bike-sharing, I encourage you to check out Divvy, the online scheduling and billing system that enables you to share your property (like bikes) with your friends and family.
