ArtBike Project - Madison, Wisconsin

"Madison B-cycle, the bike share in Madison Wisconsin, has unveiled the product of its ArtBike project, a collaboration between Madison B-cycle, Boys and Girls Club of Dance County, and DreamBikes of Madison. Ten older generation B-cycles that had been donated to DreamBikes were repurposed for the project. The frames were then painted by youth members of the Boys and Girls Club with unique and colorful designs. The freshly painted frames were then weatherproofed by Trek Bicycle at their Waterloo, WI global headquarters and reunited with their parts at DreamBikes and Madison B-cycle for their return to regular use in the Madison B-cycle system. Three of these bikes have been chosen to be displayed in the Time Capsule Corridor at Overture Center. Other display venues are Metcalfe's Market, The Boys and Girls Club, Trek Bicycle Store, Trek Bicycle Headquarters, and DreamBikes- Madison."
