Bike sharing in Nashville, Tennessee

WTVF Channel 5 Nashville says that Nashville’s Bike Sharing Program Kicks Off Friday:
Nashville’s newest program to help residents stay healthy got underway Friday. “Bike Share Nashville” allows anyone, ages 18 and up, to borrow a bike and ride it around town for free. The only catch is you have to bring it back.
And they’re going to expand it next year, from two locations in Nashville to ten locations throughout Davidson County.

Sure, Nashville is bigger than Valdosta, but bike-sharing in town is getting easier all the time, and if Nashville can get grant money to do it, Valdosta could apply, too.

Meanwhile, at Vanderbilt University:

The university offers financial incentives for carpooling, and faculty and staff receive a 60 percent subsidy on public transportation passes. Car- and bike-sharing programs are available on campus. Vehicle traffic is only allowed on the perimeter of campus.
With 11,319 students, Vanderbilt is actually smaller than VSU.

And VSU is about the same size as Georgia Tech and bigger than Emory, both of which already bike-share.
