CEOs for Cities is a national network of urban leaders dedicated to building and sustaining the next generation of great American cities.

A nice film on how bike sharing works in DC can be found here.  Portland, Oregon, is considering its own program, as is Chicago and a number of Southern California communities.  The biggest hurdles seem to be liability, resistence to more advertising on the streets (the way most communities are considering paying for their bike sharing systems), and the fact that some cities (Chicago) have already sold sidewalk advertising rights and are using that income for other purposes.
