A Look Inside Hamilton's Surprising Bike Share Success Story

A couple of weeks ago, Owen Anderson, 54, went for a 27-kilometre bike ride — on a bike he doesn't own. 
Monumental trips like that help explain how Anderson, who does magic shows for kids for a living, is Hamilton's bike share top user.
As of Sunday, he'd ridden 2154.88 kilometres on the SOBI bike share bikes. He joined in May, so that's about 300 km a month, roughly 10 km a day. 
Sometimes he goes further, like that 27-km ride on the Rail Trail out to Highway 54 and back.
Unlike the majority of riders who use the bikes for commutes and errands, Anderson uses it entirely for recreation and exercise.
