The Albuquerque (N.M.) Journal: At a time when gas prices are reaching record highs, the city of Albuquerque, N.M., is negotiating a contract that would make a fleet of hundreds of "SmartBike" bicycles available for rent via self-service kiosks provided by Clear Channel Outdoor. The proposal would make the Albuquerque deployment the largest SmartBike program in the country. Mayor Martin Chávez estimates the project will make between 420 and 600 bicycles available throughout the city, starting next year.
