HUNTINGTON - If you're visiting Huntington and want to take a two-wheeled cruise around the city, your ship has come in.
Well, actually, your good, used bicycle locked up downtown will soon be ready for you to ride.
Huntington bicycle commuter Jeffrey A. Muth, Jr., has teamed up with the Berlin, Germany-based group, Bike Surf, to bring bicycle sharing to the city.
A computer programmer who has been actively cycling in the city for the past five years, Muth said he's excited to bring in the program which would keep bicycles locked up downtown for guests to use.
Bike Surf has spread to eight different countries including Germany, Ireland, Poland, Portugal, Chile, Netherlands, Greece and Norway. Although bike share programs exist in most U.S. cities, Huntington is the first U.S. city to try this particular bike share program.
