Well, that didnt work.

Chinese are not too good at sharing.

didn't mean for it to sound like an attack - that makes more sense. it looks to me like they had way too many bikes without figuring out how many people were actually interested in such a thing.

i'm waiting to see how limebike pans out, something i've seen locally similar to this where you can leave your bike anywhere. in contrast to the ford bikeshares, which have certain stations you leave them at:

Yeah, that checks out. There are nine (built) bikes in my garage, and only four people (I'm pretty sure) live in this house. I suppose it's possible the dog rides, but I don't think so.
