Bike lovers and downtown dwellers, take note: A new bike-sharing program launched on Thursday.

Wichita Mayor Jeff Longwell said the BikeShareICT program will place 100 bikes at 19 stations throughout the city, focused in the downtown core.

“I can’t wait to see people riding around Wichita (and) enjoying our city on this bike share,” Longwell said. “This is really what makes Wichita a special place.”

MoBikeFed comment: Bike Share is moving forward in Wichita, but still hasn't gotten any traction in St. Louis.

St. Louis is pretty much the largest midwestern city that still lacks a bike share program
