Where I work (University of Minnesota) our campus straddles both sides of the Mississippi River, so distance between meetings can easily exceed a mile. Campus parking is at a premium and pushed out to the edges of campus, so traveling by car is impractical. Luckily, the campus has several Nice Ride (bike sharing) stations and the University has negotiated significantly discounted memberships, so it ends up being a fantastic way to get around campus. Campus is crisscrossed with dedicated bike paths/lanes/bridges, so hopping on your own bike or a Nice Ride is often the quickest way between two points on campus, as well as into nearby neighborhoods or up and down the river trails for lunch. I really appreciate that as a benefit of working here.
