It may come as soon as 2010… up right now on Boston.com is the article “Boston takes first step on bike sharing program”

I can’t believe I haven’t heard about this before, it’s brilliant – a Bicycle Lift system in Norway.
I can sure think of a few places where something like this would have been appealing. In this video it looks like it might be coin-operated.

Only one question remains for many area commuters: Is it possible to bike to work and get there alive? Boston has a horrible reputation on the national bicycling scene and for three good reasons: lousy roads, bad drivers, and car-centric civic attitudes.
Getting on a bike for the first time since she was 16 years old, 42-year-old Priscilla Power rode 5 miles to her Wakefield office as part of her company’s “Bike to Work Day” last month. Though she remembered how to pedal, the inexperienced biker detoured through a Dunkin’ Donuts’ parking lot to avoid a busy intersection.
In Cambridge alone, the number of people bicycling has risen 70 percent, according to this recent story.
