Last Friday marked the first free bike share day on Governors Island, and Streetfilms' Elizabeth Press was on hand:
Governors Island Preservation and Education Corporation (GIPEC), Transportation Alternatives and Bike and Roll have joined forces to create what they are calling New York City's first sustained bike share program. Every Friday between June 6th and October 4th, Governors Island visitors can rent adult and children's bikes at no charge. On Saturdays and Sundays bikes can be rented at cost.
Bike share specifics may be found here. And check out this 2007 Streetfilm for a virtual tour of the island.
