Indianapolis’ bikeshare program has provided more than 46,000 bicycle rides in its first three months of operation.

The Indianapolis Cultural Trail announced statistics for the Indiana Pacers Bikeshare Thursday. Since its start on April 22, the program has sold 14,703 24-hour passes, and registered 1,230 yearly members.

Two hundred fifty bright-yellow bicycles are available at 25 stations, primarily located along the Cultural Trail. Officials say the station at Washington and Meridian streets has been the busiest, followed by stations at Mass Ave and Alabama Street and White River State Park.

Pacers Bikeshare is available by purchasing either an annual membership for $80 at pacersbikeshare.org or a 24 hour pass for $8 online or at any bikeshare station kiosk.
