ASCOBIKE: Largest Bicycle Parking Facility in the Americas

by Elizabeth Press on May 7, 2009 | 4,001 Plays

ASCOBIKE isn't your average bicycle parking station. It is located an hour out of São Paulo on the grounds of the commuter rail station in a city with zero bicycle infrastructure. And yet, ASCOBIKE houses 1700 bikes daily,  and offers a series of social, legal and bicycle education services. Watch this video and see how unique ASCOBIKE really is.

    I love this project. In itself, because it solves a major transportation problem--safe storage of bicycles. And because it shows so clearly how when you solve one problem in a collective way, you start to solve many others.
    Great project, great film.

    I'm so glad to see this film. It is very inspirational for what we are trying to do here in Portland. http://bit.ly/MBfPo
