Glad to see this coming to SF. It's one of the things that I miss the most from Mexico City, where the EcoBici (<a href="http://thecityfix.com/blog/mexico-city-launches-ecobici-bike-sharing-program/" rel="nofollow">http://thecityfix.com/blog/mexico-city-launches-ecobici-bike...</a>) program its one of the best ways to get around on the upscale neighborhoods.
I can see the bikes on GT campus from my desk all day. As someone who likes to ride a bike I think the idea is neat, but I wonder who actually uses them..? Maybe they do well, but it seems they just sit there all day.<p>Plus are people supposed to carry a helmet around or just forgo brain protection?
