LOCATIONSThe River Cities Bike Share Program is located in Southeast Indiana and offered by both the cities of Aurora and Lawrenceburg. There are bicycle rental stations in 3 locations – downtown Aurora across from the City Building, the Dearborn Trail at the Aurora Dog Park, and downtown Lawrenceburg between Ivy Tech and the Event Center. The Dearborn Trail, a beautiful 6-mile stretch of paved trail along the Ohio River, joins the two cities – making this a truly remarkable and scenic bicycling opportunity.
All River Cities bicycles are new, easy-to-operate Shimano 7-speed bikes with automatic docking technology and include rear baskets for miscellaneous items such as purchased products, sweaters, cameras, etc.
