    Also please note:

    Your city clients, marketing contacts: We will be pleased to make available signed copies of the latest edition of the report to your clients and marketing contacts at a fifty percent reduction on the current individual subscriber costs. If you wish, the reports thus ordered can be marked to show that they have been supplied in your behalf.

    Level playing field:
    It is not the purpose of this project or our organization to favor the work or capacities of any one supplier. Our clients, our intended beneficiaries, are the cities and the public agencies who need to be informed in this concise independent form about how city bikes work and how they can be best brought into service in their city. On the other hand we are pleased to be on good collegial terms with all the contending suppliers who are in our view vital to the future of this terrific new mobility sector.

    Acknowledgments:
    This report is funded entirely through subscriptions. We are proud to be able to cite the names of the cities and organizations who have come in both to use and to support this continuing program. We will be pleased to site the name of all subscribers in the Acknowledgments section, if they chose to be thus identified.
