  3. Ever wonder what’s in a citibike kiosk?

    This one was just sitting open. I wonder how they connect to the internet- the receipt printer is really neat! #teardown #citibike #nyc #electronics

  4. Of course @lincolnrestler.bsky.social and @chiosse.bsky.social already thought of a way to ensure that it is INDEED cheaper to #bike than take a cab to get around #NYC They'd cap hour long ride #citibike ride rate to the cost of a subway fare. #bikeNYC 👀 --> hellgatenyc.com/will-nyc-fin...

    How to Make Citi Bike More Aff...

  5. It’s weird to me that taking a cab on short haul (<3 miles) trips with two people is cheaper than a #citibike - I knew they didn’t get subsidies, but I didn’t realize they pay extra to operate in #nyc 🤷‍♀️ 💡 #bikeNYC should be cheaper than a cab.

  6. Not a member of #Citibike as have my own bikes. Recently wanted to use it but unlock fee was $4.79. As a senior I pay half fare for transit so had to compare that to $1.40 for whole trip. No way! Citibike needs city funding or rates should vary with presence of other transit methods.

  7. Preteen outgrew all his clothes, so it’s off to the donation center… about a mile away.

    Another good use of #citibike #nyc #bikeNYC

  8. most amazing @TheOverheadWire podcast. theoverheadwire.com/2024/05/mo
    #verkehrsverbund A horribly long German word but its very pronounceable and an amazing idea. Why can't the #NYC #MTA and #Citibike get together and offer an annual subscription to both services? That would cover the whole transportation market! Do away with all the individual trip costs. Make riding transit feel free like owning a car. Make the annual ticket a sunk cost.

  9. #nypd continues to occupy the #columbia neighborhood in #nyc

    Hard to capture the number of #nypd and cop cars of every size on every block from my bike.

    And the #press covering how the protestors prevent folks from getting around … is itself occupying the public #bikenyc #citibike station actually interfering w peoples ability to get around.

    It feels like it’s an occupied zone.

    I am feeling shame and sadness this morning.
