It appears that the New York Citibike program is successful, based on my observations of one bike station. :-) The top photograph was taken at 12 Noon, on Broadway, around 41st Street. The second photograph was taken at 5 PM, same location. So there are a lot of bikes out being used, on the streets of Manhattan. The way it works is that you insert a credit card into the device that holds the bike, and purchase a 24 hour or 7 day pass, then you take the bike, ride it around, and then return it to any location. Cool way to get around!
That is very cool!! Good to know information.
