Where would you put Boulder bike-share stations?

Considering that the city is “finalizing” a contract for a Boulder bike-sharing program akin to Denver’s B-Cycle, it’s time to start nerding out with maps, which is my favorite part of any day.

So I’m asking you folks, here and on Twitter and Facebook, where would you put Boulder bike-share stations?

It’s pretty clear that there would be a station or two on Pearl, right? Let’s assume you’d have one on the east end, the west end and, for the heck of it, let’s say one on 13th.

Where else? Let me hear you.

Check out the B-Cycle map (PDF) for inspiration.
