Streetfilms: ASCOBIKE, Largest Bicycle Facility in the Americas

8:55 AM PDT on May 15, 2009

ASCOBIKE isn't your average bicycle parking station. It is located an
hour out of São Paulo on the grounds of the commuter rail station in a
city with zero bicycle infrastructure. And yet, ASCOBIKE houses
1700 bikes daily,  and offers a series of social, legal and bicycle
education services. Watch this video and see how unique ASCOBIKE really is.
