Bikes are for Everyone!

Support POGOH and ensure a more inclusive mobility future for our city, and align your organization with a sustainable, joyful, affordable mobility service for Pittsburgh.

 

Bike Share Pittsburgh is dedicated to working with BIPOC communities and marginalized neighborhoods to better connect residents to the bikeshare system through inclusive pricing models, station locations, partnerships, and public engagement. POGOH has also introduce a unique rental fleet of accessible cycles called Adaptive POGOH on the Eliza Furnace Trail to ensure that persons with disabilities and older adults are able to share in the joy of riding bikes.
