well, if you’re dropping a bike somewhere that you’re the only person likely to use it you’ve gone from “bikeshare” to “personal bike”.
I haven’t seen this mentioned elsewhere on the forum, but I have heard that Lyft/Motivate have proposed to the regional jurisdiction owners that the “dockless” model
– not allow dockless parking more than 0.25 mile from a traditional CaBi station
– charge the user an extra fee for parking dockless
I’ve heard that Alexandria (staff? Council? I don’t recall which) have asked for a larger dockless radius (0.5 mi?), in hopes that a larger radius might help effectively increase the geographic reach and demographic equity of the system.
