After completing the safety and eBike use training, residents may reserve an eBike for check out by using the online reservation form or by calling the eBike location. Reservations are not confirmed until they have been reviewed and approved by eBike staff. Residents will get a confirmation email or phone call once the reservation is approved. On the day and time of the confirmed reservation, the resident will come to the appropriate eBike location, sign out the bike, and start their ride. The eBike must be returned to the appropriate eBike location no later than three hours after the ride start time.
Eligible riders may check out a bike for up to three hours.
During the pilot phase of the HADCO eBike Lending Library, the time each resident has with the eBike must be limited to allow access for as many other residents as possible. This policy may change if the program expands and more eBikes are added.
Yes, eBike reservations may be requested in advance. At launch, residents will only be allowed to make one reservation at a time to allow other participants the opportunity to try out an eBike. This policy may change if eBike reservations are low. At all times, HADCO has the right to cancel a confirmed reservation, if needed.
During the initial pilot of the HADCO eBike Lending Library Program, we ask participants to limit their eBike reservations to one at a time. You may make another reservation as soon as you’92ve completed a previous registration and ride. If demand for eBike reservations is low, we may allow participants to reserve more than one ride time at a time. HADCO reserves the right to limit the number of reservations per resident and to cancel a confirmed reservation, if needed.
Registered eBike Lending Library participants may only check out one eBike at a time. However, if two eBikes are available in the same time slot, two registered participants from the same household may register for one eBike ride each so they can ride together. This only applies to the HADCO Admin office location. The Vine Street Apartments location only has one eBike available at a time.
Yes, residents can be limited on how many times they can check out an eBike. However, if demand for an eBike is low, a repeat user may be allowed to check out an eBike again.
Please use the Calendly confirmation email link or call the eBike location to cancel a reservation. Once you’92ve received confirmation that the reservation was cancelled, you may schedule a new reservation through the Calendly reservation link or over the phone.
Bring the eBike back to the original eBike location and sign the eBike back in.
Residents are not responsible for charging the eBike before returning it to the eBike station.
