Statistics that fail independent corroboration are excluded.

Bike sharing hit 1 billion rides globally in 2023, and the momentum keeps stacking up with commuter and infrastructure gains that look far more climate friendly than car travel. The surprising part is how many of the biggest effects come from everyday behavior changes like shorter trips, longer e bike routes, and safer protected lanes. In this post, we connect those real world shifts to hard sustainability metrics across bikes, fleets, and manufacturing.
