Indiana University has just announced that they are starting a bike share program that will be 100% student managed. They are starting with 10 bikes in January and adding another 50 in May. As Bloomington is trying to get Platinum designation with the Bike League, this is a big deal! They indicate that this is the first student led initiative like this.

The student government has reached out to the local club (of which I'm a director) and the city (where I serve on the Platinum designation task force) for help and guidance in getting this going.

I'm inclined to provide some assistance to them, but no one locally seems to have any direct experience with this.

Does anyone have any experience with this and/or tidbits of wisdom to offer in helping the student government get this off to a successful start?
