Bluebikes is metro-Boston’s public bike share system. With thousands of bikes available 24/7 at hundreds of stations throughout Metro-Boston, Bluebikes is one of the most popular bike shares in the country.

Use the app to find your closest station and purchase a pass. Then unlock one of Bluebikes' safe, sturdy, easy to ride bikes, and get riding right away. When you’re done riding, simply return the bike to an available dock at any station in the network. The app will show you all station locations, with real-time bike and dock availability, and you can save your favorites for later reference. Tap a station pin or location and the app will show you the best route to get there.

Ideal for one-way trips, commutes to work or school, running errands, meeting friends for dinner, going to a game, or just cruising around metro-Boston to see the sights. All trips under 45 minutes are included for members (the app will track your time for you). Take as many rides as you want during the term of your pass.

Enjoy the ride!

Being able to get some exercise in and saving some money is pretty nice. Glad to have these around.

HIGHWAY ROBBERY Boston. 10$ each for daypass., still get charged per min for an ebike. Have to park it in another station or continue to get charged and its usually a block from where i want to be. Or we can pay a few dollars more and uber. Utter ridiculous the cost and low availabilty of ebikes. Cuz, u know, i want to sweat using a conventional bike on my vacation. Your wording on the day pass and STILL having to pay for ebikes is vague. U sukt me in. Bravo u got my 18$. No more.
