Rental bikes will soon be rolling on the streets of Wichita again, after the COVID-19 pandemic bankrupted the previous operator of Bike Share ICT. The City Council on Tuesday unanimously approved a contract with a new operator for bike rentals, a company called Tandem Mobility. That firm operates the KANcycle program that serves several cities in north-central Kansas, including Salina and Concordia, according to its website. Wichita has been without a rent-a-bike service since May when the previous contractor, Zagster, declared bankruptcy and ceased operation. Council member Becky Tuttle, who ran Bike Share ICT in her previous job at the Greater Wichita YMCA, said she was delighted by the system’s comeback.
