| 1965 || || System launch || A group of activists in {{w|Amsterdam}} introduce the {{w|Wittefietsenplan}} (White Bikes), a set of dozens of regular bicycles painted in white and left unlocked for anyone to use and leave behind for the next person. The This first generation program is not a business offering, but the result of a political statement of concern for pollution and against the growing number of cars in the city. It would eventually result into a massive failure and would be quickly shut down after many of the bikes are stolen or damaged. The main person behind the program, {{w|Luud Schimmelpennink}}, is considered the father of the bike share.<ref name="A brief history of bike sharing">{{cite web |last1=Walker |first1=Bradley |title=A brief history of bike sharing |url=https://360.here.com/a-brief-history-of-bikesharing |website=360.here.com |accessdate=21 June 2019}}</ref><ref name="THE BIKE-SHARE BOOM">{{cite web |title=THE BIKE-SHARE BOOM |url=https://www.citylab.com/city-makers-connections/bike-share/#slide-1965 |website=citylab.com |accessdate=21 June 2019}}</ref><ref name="Bike-Sharing Enters Its 4th Generation">{{cite web |title=Bike-Sharing Enters Its 4th Generation |url=https://www.smartcitiesdive.com/ex/sustainablecitiescollective/four-generations-bike-sharing/122546/ |website=smartcitiesdive.com |accessdate=12 July 2019}}</ref> || {{w|Netherlands}} ({{w|Amsterdam}})
