conditions by which the Parties will collectively provide, administer and fund Bikeshare
Services for calendar years 2023 - 2028.
3. Term of MOU. This MOU shall have an Effective Date of January 1, 2023,
and remain in effect through December 31, 2028, subject to annual written renewal and
appropriation by the Parties to this MOU.
4. Bikeshare Services. Each year that this MOU remains in effect, the Parties
agree that they will cooperate together to provide the Bikeshare Services described in the
Regional Bikeshare Services Annual Scope of Work found on Exhibit 1B. The Parties also
agree to appropriate their shares of the cost of Bikeshare Services according to the Regional
Bikeshare Cost-Sharing Methodology for years 2023 - 2028 that will be set forth each year on
Exhibit 2, Pages 1 - 5. In addition, the Parties agree to assist WE-cycle in planning for the
operation of Bikeshare Services and siting the locations of stations within their jurisdictions
and in obtaining or providing any necessary permits for that purpose that are required in their

Exhibit 3 for a list of Recommended Cooperative Responsibilities and Expectations of the
Parties to this MOU.
5. Definitions.
A. Indirect Regional Operation Costs: Prior to the beginning of Bikeshare
Services in any year, WE-cycle will submit to RFTA a budget for total
Indirect Regional Operation Costs. RFTA, WE-cycle Sponsorship Revenue,
and EOTC revenue (if appropriated each year) will be used to defray 100%
of Indirect Regional Operation Costs by allocating such revenue to each of
the participating communities based on the percentage that each participating
community’s bikeshare stations1 represent of total regional bikeshare
stations (see Exhibit 2, Pages 1 – 3, Charts 1 - 9). Each year this MOU is in
effect (2023 - 2028), the total of annual Indirect Regional Operation Revenue
for Bikeshare Services will be set forth on Exhibit 2, Page 5, Chart 15.
B. Direct Local Operation Costs: Prior to the beginning of Bikeshare Services
in any year, WE-cycle will submit budgets to RFTA and each of the

WE-cycle has invoiced RFTA and RFTA has paid WE-cycle in full for such equipment.
10. Annual Reconciliation and True-up. No later than April 15 following each year
this MOU is in effect, RFTA will provide the Parties with a reconciliation statement. WE-
cycle’s actual total year-end Direct Local Operation Costs for the previous year will be
compared with the budgeted costs. Any surplus revenue resulting from this comparison will be
remitted by RFTA to the Parties by April 30 following each year this MOU is in effect.
11. Payments to WE-cycle. Pursuant to a separate SOA, each year this MOU is in
effect, RFTA will pay WE-cycle the amounts set forth on Exhibit 2, as also reflected in, and subject
to, the terms of the SOA.
12. Annual Appropriation. This MOU is expressly contingent upon the Parties
budgeting and appropriating the costs required herein. If, in any year of this MOU, any Party fails
to appropriate or have available sufficient funds to pay for the costs of its financial commitments,
set forth on Exhibit 2, Pages 1 – 3, Charts 3 – 9 of this MOU, Bikeshare Services planned for any
non-appropriating Party shall not be provided. All other provisions of this MOU, however, for the
appropriating Parties, shall remain in effect.
13. Ownership of Capital Assets. RFTA will grant a license to WE-cycle per the SOA,
for use of all equipment purchased pursuant to this MOU. RFTA will retain ownership and WE-
cycle will maintain the fixed asset schedule of all Core Bikeshare Equipment and Bikeshare

purchased pursuant to this MOU. Core Bikeshare Equipment is defined as bikes (pedal bikes and
e-bikes), and stations, (plates, docks, kiosks, solar panels, map panels) and Bikeshare Support
Equipment is defined as balancing vehicles and trailers, and supporting equipment. If, when this
MOU terminates, or at any time during the 2023 - 2028 term of this MOU, any of the Parties elects
not to participate in this MOU for the subsequent year, and at any time in the future, RFTA will
reimburse such Party for the depreciated value of the capital assets acquired for their jurisdiction,
using the double declining balance method of depreciation, based on the accepted useful life of
individual assets. RFTA will multiply the depreciated value of individual assets by the 20% local
share of such Party to determine the amount of reimbursement that will be made. At RFTA’s
discretion, such equipment can be used in other parts of the regional bikeshare system, sold, or
otherwise disposed of.
14. Monthly Reports. On or before the 15th day of the month following the month in
which Bikeshare Services are operated, WE-cycle will issue monthly reports to the Parties which

Destination 2040 Implementation
Bikeshare expansion plans were developed with the input of local jurisdictions and were used to identify
what expansion could be included in the D2040 implementation and what expansion could be implemented
outside of D2040. The following expansion scenario includes a phasing plan that fits the objectives of the
D2040 project description and provides some service expansion in the Town of Snowmass Village that will
be funded outside of D2040. The “Destination 2040 Implementation + Enhanced Upper Valley Service”
plan includes the following expansion:
• Aspen Area:
» City of Aspen: Phase 3 (projected for 2023) that could include 5 stations and be coordinated with
Pitkin County to expand the existing service area to the Buttermilk, Burlingame, and ABC areas.
» Pitkin County: Phase 4 (projected for 2024) that could include 5 stations and be coordinated with
the City of Aspen to expand the existing service area to the Buttermilk, Burlingame, and ABC areas.
• Snowmass Village:
» Phase 2 (projected for 2024) that could include a 5-station pilot in Downtown Snowmass Village
and require the creation of a local operations center in the Town of Snowmass Village.
• Mid-Valley:
» Eagle County: Phase 3 (projected for 2023) that could include an additional 4 stations. This phase
does not include any additional stations in the Town of Basalt or Pitkin County.
• Town of Carbondale:
» Opening Service (projected for 2023) that could include 15 stations. With the support of RFTA and
the Town of Carbondale, WE-cycle will start planning for this system in 2022 with funding
approved as part of the Interim Agreement and continue in early 2023 in
anticipation of opening in the spring of 2023. WE-cycle may work with a to-be-formed Carbondale
Bikeshare Working Group consisting of an elected official, a jurisdiction staff member, a RFTA
staff member, a member of the Bike-Pedestrian Committee, and community members at-large
including at least one Spanish-Speaker.
• City of Glenwood Springs:
» Opening Service (projected for 2024) that could include 16 stations. With the support of RFTA and
the Town of Carbondale, WE-cycle will start planning for this system in late 2022 with funding
approved as part of the interim agreement and will continue in 2023 in anticipation of opening in
the spring of 2024. WE-cycle may work with a to-be-formed Glenwood Springs Bikeshare Working
Group consisting of an elected official, a jurisdiction staff member, a RFTA staff member, a member
of the Bike-Pedestrian or Transportation Committee, and community members at-large including at
least one Spanish-Speaker.
Outside of Destination 2040
A regional system would bring first- and last-mile mobility and local circulation benefits to new
communities and would enhance utility and ridership of the system in existing communities as users will
be able to use bikeshare at either end of their trip. Destination 2040 will expand bikeshare service into the
Lower Valley and there is room for service expansion in all communities outside of Destination 2040.
23
EXHIBIT 1A, Page 4
Future service could also be considered in the Town of New Castle, but other first- and last-mile options
may be more suitable given the densities, urban form, and availability of resources.
A reasonable level of future expansion was identified from the local jurisdiction bikeshare expansion plans
to forecast expected system costs. This will need to be funded outside of D2040 and the “Outside of
Destination 2040” plan includes the following potential expansion:
• Aspen Area:
» Additional stations in the City of Aspen or Pitkin County as part of development or inclusion in
infrastructure projects. Seven (7) additional stations were included to represent this potential
expansion.
• Snowmass Village:
» Town of Snowmass Village and Pitkin County: Phase 3 (scheduled for 2027) that could include an
additional 9 stations including 8 stations in the Town of Snowmass Village and 1 station at the Brush
Creek Intercept Lot in Pitkin County.
• Mid-Valley:
» Town of Basalt: Phase 3 (projected for 2025) that could include an additional 6 stations.
» Additional stations in the Town of Basalt, Eagle County, and/or Pitkin County as part of
development or inclusion in infrastructure projects. Eleven additional stations were included to
represent this potential expansion.
• Carbondale:
» Phase 2 (projected for 2025) that could include an additional 9 stations.
• Glenwood Springs:
» Phase 2 (projected for 2026) that could include an additional 12 stations and expand into new service
areas on the north and west sides of the Colorado and Roaring Fork Rivers.
» Phase 3 (projected for 2028) that could include an additional 10 stations and expand the service area
into West Glenwood Springs.
• New Castle:
» Opening Service (projected for 2027) that could include 16 stations including 15 stations in the
Town of New Castle and 1 station in Garfield County.

2023 REGIONAL BIKESHARE SERVICES ANNUAL SCOPE OF WORK
In 2023, WE-cycle will operate Bikeshare Services in Existing WE-cycle Bikeshare Communities,
with the enhancements as described below, and offer expanded regional Bikeshare Services in
Carbondale.

Exhibit 3, Page 1
Recommended Cooperative Responsibilities and Expectations of the Parties of this MOU
• Jointly create a Regional Bikeshare Advisory Committee (similar to the Technical Advisory Committee on the Regional Bikeshare Plan) with
staff representatives from RFTA, WE-cycle, and each participating local jurisdiction. The Committee would discuss planning level issues and
challenges and make recommendations to the RFTA and WE-cycle Boards for any changes to the program.
• Designate a bikeshare point of contact who is responsible for advocating for bikeshare and facilitating bikeshare processes and permitting and
coordination within the local jurisdiction.
• Coordinate all bikeshare station siting and permitting through the local jurisdiction’s approvals’ process.
• Make best efforts to site stations in the public right-of-way in safe, visible, and year-round locations.
• Strive to find shop/office space for WE-cycle in local jurisdiction-owned buildings and provide rent at a reduced rate or at no charge.
• Continue to lead planning efforts for bicycle infrastructure and safe route improvements to stations in the public right-of-way.
• Include WE-cycle as a regional transportation referral agency for regionally significant development and capital projects. WE-cycle and RFTA
will coordinate responses and recommend where mitigation and impact fees related to bikeshare may be appropriate. However, it is recognized that
RFTA (and WE-cycle) hold an advisory role on the development and capital project review process led by jurisdictions.
• A written request and statement of interest from jurisdictions must be submitted to RFTA in advance of WE-cycle initiating service expansion
planning in any such jurisdiction.
• It is recommended that jurisdictions consider establishing a Bikeshare Working Group/Committee that includes an elected official, a jurisdiction
staff member, a RFTA staff member, a member of the Bike-Ped Committee (or other related volunteer committee), and community members at-large
including at least one Spanish-speaker. WE-cycle will lead and facilitate this group in supporting the planning, implementation, refinement of bikeshare
in the particular jurisdiction.
32
• Annual Planning and Budgeting. Each year that this MOU is in effect, the Parties agree to work with WE-cycle and RFTA in a timely
manner in order to jointly establish the Regional Bikeshare Services Annual Scope of Work, Exhibit 1B, and associated Regional Bikeshare Cost-
Sharing Methodology, Exhibit 2, for the forthcoming year, as follows:
Planning:
• In the first quarter of each calendar year, WE-cycle will meet with each participating Party and discuss particulars for the current
calendar year’s Bikeshare Services and the following year’s Bikeshare Services inclusive of, but not limited to, operational
enhancements, station locations and sizes, capital and replacement and maintenance needs, and any anticipated budgetary adjustments.
Upon the completion of this item, the following steps will take place:
• WE-cycle, in coordination with RFTA, will provide each Party its projected costs for the following year
• Upon reviewing and discussing anticipated budget, the Party will provide a written indication to WE-cycle and RFTA of its
desired level of Bikeshare Services for which it intends to budget
• RFTA will present the anticipated Regional Bikeshare Services Annual Scope of Work, Exhibit 1B, for the forthcoming year
and associated Regional Bikeshare Cost-Sharing Methodology, Exhibit 2, to the RFTA Board of Directors for direction subject
to subsequent approval of the RFTA budget
• WE-cycle will place necessary equipment orders and RFTA will pay for the associated deposit of 50%, per the terms
established in the SOA
Approval:
• By the end of October of each calendar year, each participating Party will inform RFTA of its intentions to seek approval for their
funding commitments in accordance with their local budgeting process
• By or before December 15 of each calendar year, RFTA and WE-cycle will finalize Exhibit 1B and Exhibit 2 and provide them to the
Parties in conjunction with the annual MOU written renewal. Signed renewals must be returned to RFTA on or before December 31
