Washington DC’s Capital Bikeshare program has been a resounding success since its launch in the fall of last year.  There are now 1100 bikes spread out at over 110 stations throughout DC and Arlington, VA.  Capital Bikeshare recently announced the addition of 32 new bikeshare stations within the District, and Arlington County is currently reviewing where to put in several new stations along the Rosslyn-Ballston Metro corridor.  There are so many ways in which DC’s Bikeshare system has been done right, from the design of the bikes to ease of use for customers that it makes a great example for other US cities to follow.  My only wish is that they expand with stations in Shirlington (south Arlington), which will likely be Arlington’s next step after stations are complete in the Arlington Metro corridor. Here’s a video from Streetfilms documenting some of the Bikeshare’s success:
