Happy 3rd Birthday!

The Bike-sharing Blog turns 3 today. Happy Birthday to us!

It was just the other day when The Bike-sharing Blog was born, crying and hungry. Its first words were not "mama" and "dada", but rather, "bikebike" and "Copenhagen". Now The Bike-sharing Blog is in toddlerhood and running rampant around the house, getting into everything, and not always picking up after itself. At first there were just a few words in its vocabulary, like Bicing and Velib', but now there are nearly 200 systems all over the globe.

Thanks for reading and your support of The Bike-sharing Blog, making it the #1 website internationally for bike-sharing info -- yes, even more popular and much more accurate than Wikipedia! As the Blog is moving into its 4th year, Russell and I will continue posting news from around the world on what's going on, helping you advocate for bike-sharing in your city through info exchange. Continue to share what is going on in your part of the world, so we could post about it on The Bike-sharing Blog to share with others. As we all learn from the best practices of bike-sharing, so can we make our cities better, healthier, cleaner, and more liveable.

The first three years have been great and the next three should be even more fun.

Happy Birthday!
