150 LouVelo Bikes Donated to UofL Bikeshare!

LouVelo Bike Donation

 

It’s been almost 1 year since our city’s bike share program, LouVelo, unfortunately ended. Since that time, Bike Louisville and Louisville Metro Government have been working hard to find a new home for the LouVelo equipment. Simply scrapping the bikes or letting them rust away in storage was not an option. Because of this, we are happy to report that 150 LouVelo bikes have been donated to the University of Louisville’s bike share program, where they will be rebranded and lent to students, faculty, and staff in need of active, reliable, and sustainable transportation! Thanks to the team at Public Works for their help loading and delivering the bikes and all of the volunteers who came out to help. To see a video of the 150-bike delivery click on the link below!
