A brief description of the program, including an indication of its scope (e.g., the number of bicycles the program makes available, participation levels, etc.):
The Borrow Our Bikes Green Bike Program is run by USF Outdoor Recreation. This service allows students to check out bicycles for free. It also provides assistance to those on campus who have bicycles skateboards, and long boards that need repair. The equipment includes a cruiser bike or mountain bike, a bike, a helmet, lights, lock, and key. The website also allows students to see all the information necessary to borrow a bike.
In Fall 2013, the Student Green Energy Fund approved $325,000 for a smart bike sharing program with the initial 100 bikes. This will use GPS mounted bikes that will be supported by mobile apps for students to locate the bikes and make booking. This program will be managed by USF Outdoor Recreation and will be implemented in the summer and ready for usage in Fall 2014. It will augment the existing borrow our bikes program.
