DecoBike: Introducing Miami’s bike share program

If the traffic nightmare kept you away from South Beach, you’re going to love this.

DecoBike, Miami’s first bike share program, has bike stations across the beach and scattered all the way up to 85th Street, making it easy to move around without (1) creating carbon emissions, (2) adding to the traffic and (3) making you feel guilty for having too much Pizza Rustica.

All you have to do is get a $15 monthly membership and you’ll have unlimited access to the 1,000 bikes in 100 stations across Miami Beach. There are no return dates, no late fees, no extra charges. Just go to your closest solar-powered station, check out a bike, and drop it off at another station.

I think the program is one of the best things to ever happen to SoBe, and will make wonders for locals and visitors alike, specially helping reduce congestion and noise. You won’t need to use to car for simple things such as renting a movie, minor grocery shopping, or even bar hopping. Plus, you’ll be able to eat a little more Rustica -yes, you know I’m talking to you.

The program is almost ready to launch. Do you think you’ll be riding a DecoBike next time you hit the beach? What would it take for you to leave your car behind?
