Description:

Overview
Drexel Bike Share is open to all students and employees with a valid Drexel University ID and in good standing with the University. There is no rental fee to use a Drexel Bike Share bike. To be eligible to participate in Drexel Bike Share, the student or employee must complete a Drexel Bike Share Membership Agreement and, prior to each use of Bike Share equipment, a Drexel Bike Share User Agreement. The use of a Drexel Bike Share bike includes a helmet, u-lock, cable and lock key (the “Equipment”). All Bike Share Equipment is picked up and returned to the Drexel Bike Share hub located in the Parking Services Garage Office, Room #124, 3330 Market St, Philadelphia, PA 19104 (the “Hub”). Drexel makes no representations as to the availability of the Equipment. Use of the Equipment is strictly on a “first come, first served” basis. Reservations for Equipment will not be accepted.

Share Time (one day or weekend)
Bikes may be shared one day at a time or for a weekend. Other than in the case of a weekend or holiday, Equipment may not be signed out for consecutive days. Bike Shares beginning on a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday, must be returned at the same time on the following day. Bike Shares beginning on a Friday must be returned at the same time on the following Monday. In the case of a holiday, bikes must be returned on the next business day at the same time of day as when the Equipment was checked out. All pick ups and returns must occur between 8:00 AM and 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday (excluding holidays). Members must return the Equipment to the Drexel Bike Share designated rack, lock the bike, and then return the helmet and key to the Parking Office located at the Hub. Equipment left at the Hub after the Parking Office is closed will be considered late, and may result in the loss of the Equipment, and the suspension of the Member’s rental privileges.

Failure to return the Equipment on time may result in the suspension of the Member’s rental privileges. As outlined in the Drexel Bike Share Membership Agreement, if the Equipment is lost, stolen or damaged, Members may be held financially responsible for the full replacement cost of the Equipment. Drexel will assume that the Equipment is a complete loss if it is not returned within twenty-four hours of its designated due date and time. Drexel does not maintain insurance to cover the loss of any Drexel Bike Share Equipment. By executing the Membership Agreement and the User Agreement, Members acknowledge and agree to be financially responsible for any loss of or damage to Drexel Bike Share Equipment, regardless of the cause.
