Found inWork cat.: Hepp-Buchanan, M. Creating public value for public bicycles, 2010: leaf 1 ("Public-use bicycle share; shortened for purposes of this paper to 'bike-share,' the broad definition of bike-sharing is simple: public transportation via bicycle. A more detailed definition describes bicycles that are intended for short-term use by the public and are available for check-out and return at unattended urban locations.")
Denver Bike Sharing Web site, Nov. 4, 2010 ("Bike sharing is a new way of getting around.")
Wikipedia, Nov. 4, 2010 ("Bicycle sharing systems (also known as: community bicycle programs, yellow bicycle programs, white bicycle programs, public bikes, or free bikes) are increasingly popular and diverse. A number of bicycles are made available for shared use by individuals who do not own the bicycles. Public bicycles are a mobility service, mainly useful in urban environment for proximity travels. It is able to remove three difficulties of daily cycling use: home parking, theft and maintenance of your private bicycle.")
