Hello, Aspen Airport Business Center and Neighborhoods!

For years, riders have been requesting WE-cycle in the AABC area to provide bikeshare as a fast, convenient, and healthy mode of travel. In May, six new WE-cycle stations will open in the Aspen Airport Business Center and North Forty/Annie Mitchell neighborhoods. The network of stations is designed to facilitate bike connectivity to/from the airport bus stops, within the AABC, and to/from Aspen. Bikesharing provides a great opportunity to replace vehicle trips with emission-free bike commuting and errands pedaling and there safe, separated bike paths to and from the AABC and Aspen. WE-cycle bikes are available 24 hours a day and the first 30 minutes of every ride is free.

Station locations have been strategically selected in collaboration with Pitkin County and with community feedback. Stations placements are intended to create a comprehensive network to connect transit, housing, and commerce. The AABC WE-cycle expansion is funded by RFTA and Pitkin County.

Why WE-cycle?

Riding WE-cycle improves our air quality, reduces our impact on climate change, and helps our state of mind.  Our vision is that “WE” can pedal towards a sustainable, healthy, and connected future. As we grow and expand, our aim is to transform the Roaring Fork Valley into a region that prioritizes bicycles over vehicles, replaces traffic congestion with vibrancy, improves our visitor experience, and demonstrates innovation and leadership. We believe these values and goals are strongly aligned with those of Carbondale residents and visitors and we are looking forward to sharing both our bicycles and our enthusiasm with your community.
