Bike Stations established the first staffed facility of its kind in the United States that provides secure parking , bicycle repair and rental service. The contractor conducted extensive advertising in local media - English and Spanish, which included many incentives to bike and save, such as free movie theater tickets, free popcorn and free items and services from the Bikestation.

This Bike Station is located in Long Beach and since it is accessible by Metro Blue Line, regional bus services and local shuttle operations, the distances impacted are unknown.
The bicycle trips, after the infusion of MSRC funds, increased from 1,148 to 2,004 per month. It is not easily determined how many motor vehicles this program was instrumental in superseding.
Letters of support and congratulations, details of the logistics involved in the advertising and linking the biking experience to local events, and the financial details of the program.
