The Capital Bikeshare warehouse is filling up with shipments of stations and bikes as the service prepares to begin installation tomorrow -- Tuesday, August 31 -- in Crystal City. Arlington's map frames and the first shipment of bikes have already arrived at the warehouse and the final phases of fabrication are being completed. The team of Capital Bikeshare mechanics are busily putting together the fleet of 1,110 bikes. The first bike was unboxed and being assembled this past Thursday. 1,109 more to go by late September!
