Bike is the New Black: What’s Next for Bike Commuting?

Bike to Work Day Station

We asked Bobby Evans from Hawaii Bicycling League what three game-changers are coming up for #CommutersofHNL.

  1. Bike Share system (not just for Kailua anymore) will be set up for Oahu commuters in 2015 in conjunction with the rail transportation corridor
  2. KVIBE, the Kalihi Valley Instructional Bike Exchange http://k-vibe.blogspot.com/ is training the next generation of cyclists, activists, and also mechanics for our growing fleet of Bike Share bikes
  3. The King Street Bike Line will be in place by the end of 2014, providing a safe and speedy route for our downtown commuters, as well as athletes biking to their Tantalus lap or Ala Moana swim.

Oahu residents can see a more detailed road map to the future at http://www.hbl.org/theoahubikeproject
