The Hubway regional public bike share system has become increasingly popular over recent years. In total, the program offers over 1600 bikes at 185 stations in Boston, Brookline, Cambridge, and Somerville. This season, the City of Boston is celebrating with the debut of a specially wrapped “unicorn” bike designed by Artists for Humanity, which offers a Dorchester neighborhood theme.  A “March Madness” style game utilizing all of the City’s eight “unicorn” bikes will also be introduced this spring.

“It’s always great to see people using the Hubway bikes both Downtown and in our neighborhoods, and I’m looking forward to residents and visitors getting back on these bikes in the coming weeks as spring approaches. In addition to being a healthy and enjoyable recreational activity, bicycling is an active, low-cost form of transportation and I encourage everyone to take advantage of this terrific service.” – Mayor Martin Walsh
