List of bicycle sharing systems
This is a list of bicycle sharing systems. As at 2011, there were 375 schemes worldwide, in 33 countries, including more than 100 in Spain, nearly 80 in Italy, and nearly 50 in Germany. The total fleet comprised 236,000 bicycles. This is a sharp increase from 2008, when there were 213 schemes operating in 14 countries using 73,500 bicycles. In particular, adoption outside Europe rocketed over that period, up from one system (in Washington D.C.) to around 40, with almost 50 percent of the world fleet in the Asia Pacific region alone.[1]
