Starting this week, Spin will begin staging e-bikes in multiple locations on campus.  

“This new collaboration will support the expansion and accessibility of bicycling options on campus,” said Aaron Fowler, director of transportation with PTS. “In conjunction with the many other bicycling initiatives and resources we have on campus, this will be a great opportunity for the community to have another way to get around.”  

The partnership includes incentives to Georgia Tech users if you sign-up with your "gatech.edu" email address when registering. Riders may park the e-bikes throughout campus, ideally at the nearest bike rack or Spin's designated locations. Spin will offer riders discounts off future rides for returning bikes to designated parking locations on campus. Additionally, discounts will be offered to Tech users for e-bike trips that originate from campus. 

Spin e-bikes will be placed at these five staging locations each morning, fully charged and ready for campus use.   

Trips starting on campus are $1 to start, 20 cents per minute. Riders who park in one of the designated parking points on campus get a 50-cent ride credit on their next ride.  

To start a ride:     

  1. Find a nearby device using the Spin app.

  2. Scan the QR code on the device.   

  3. Acknowledge safety and rider rules.  

  4. Unlock the device.

  5. Use the device to your destination.  

Safety reminders:
