CSI Shares a Bike
Who would have thought that a simple idea like offering a bike share program would attract so much attention? Since Eli Malinsky and the Centre for Social Innovation (Suite 120 + 400) got their bike share program up and running they have been featured on CBC and in a documentary that is being filmed across the globe looking at this popular form of transportation.
Last year, the Community Bicycle Network, the previous administrators of a herd of yellow bikes, lost it’s funding. When Eli came up with the idea of starting a sharing network it made sense to take advantage of the collection of bikes that were sitting stationary in a warehouse. Three of them made their way to 215 Spadina and the program was launched. If you, or any of your clients, are interested in checking out a bike for use just drop in to Suite 400 and Yvonne can hand over the keys to a bike lock!
