B-cycle is a public bicycle sharing company formed in partnership between Trek Bicycle Corporation, Humana, and Crispin Porter + Bogusky. Its facilities include bicycles and solar-powered stations positioned throughout a city or region. Users purchase day passes or annual memberships and can check out and return bikes at any station in their city. The purpose of the system is to provide a flexible method for completing short trips rather than using an automobile or traditional longer rentals or bike rental companies.
