We’re expecting an absolutely gorgeous summer and there’s no better time to experience Buffalo using my personal favorite mode of transportation – bicycle! With the launch of the Independent Health-sponsored Reddy Bikeshare program in recent years, visitors and residents are finding a new method of traversing our fair city. On two wheels, you get to soak in each neighborhood you pass through at street level and at a slower pace than by bus, rail or car. With unique destinations around each Reddy bike rack, you’ll be thankful for the stop-and-go convenience of the cycles. If you’re wondering how to get started using Reddy Bikeshare, use this handy guide to get rollin’. First Things First In town just for the weekend? The Hourly program is for you. An initial $8.50 activation grants you access to the Reddy bikes for 30 days. While you’re out cruising the town, Reddy Bikeshare also charges 6 cents per active minute. So your first hour of breezy biking costs $12.10 with each subsequent hour costing $3.60. Note: If you’re rolling with your crew, look into the Group Pass. You’ll get access to up to four bikes for an initial activation of $20. Each bike then costs the same 6 per minute as the individual Hourly pass. If you’re planning on staying a while (and we know you’ll want to), maybe the Annual membership is up your alley. A $55 activation gives you unlimited access to bikes around the city for a full year with each active minute costing 1 cent.
With the SoBi app, you also get a lot of awesome perks such as reserving a bike even if you’re not at the Reddy rack yet. You’ll be able to track your route, distance and time to share via social, too. Unlock, Rock & Roll Just a heads up that helmets are not provided by Reddy Bikeshare. If you feel more comfortable riding with noggin protection, it’s recommended that you BYOH (bring your own helmet). Hold Up Back to the Rack So that’s it! Pretty simple, right? Get out there and see Buffalo’s beauty by bike. And if you’re looking for more information, visit Reddy Bikeshare at their website or Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Happy riding!
