Who is the Arlington Bikeshare Coordinator?

[fongfong]

My company is moving half a block from Glebe and N Fairfax to Glebe and Wilson. I suggested to my boss that it would be neato to think about having a Bikeshare station installed there – there really isn’t one nearby. So which Arlington County person should I reach out to to discuss? I’d like to figure out if the county would think of putting a station there on its own (budgets being what they are), or if my company would need to cough up some dough to make it happen.

Thanks for the contact.

Email info@bikearlington.com and we’ll get it to the right person on our team.

In the meantime:

Here’s a station sponsorship info sheet: http://www.bikearlington.com/tasks/sites/bike/assets/File/Capital_Bikeshare_Station_Sponsor.pdf

And here’s some info on proposed station locations for the next couple years: http://www.bikearlington.com/pages/bikesharing/planned-arlington-stations/

Just did. Looking at the Bikeshare map, I see a fairly huge gap in stations around this area, particularly since several new office buildings have been built or are being built in the vicinity.

Slightly OT, but does anyone know how far out cabi membership renewals are allowed? I have a renewal code from my employer, but my account is “not yet eligible for renewal” according to the website.

OT and in an old thread!

I have on good authority that it’s 30 days.

I have it on good opinion that that’s dumb.

It’s so folks who have renewal codes from their employeers can’t sign up for decades worth of membership.

That seems like it would be the employer’s problem.

They solved it by only allowing employees to sign up for a subsidized account 30 days in advance. Otherwise someone could quite and take a lifetime CB membership with them.
