adamiss: msg: A group called SoBi is trying to bring bike sharing to New York. They’re putting special locks on their bikes and letting users unlock them with an iPhone app. It’s cheaper than most bike sharing programs, because they’re going to NY’s use existing bike racks to store the bikes. They’re trying to win some Pepsi Refresh money, so if you like the idea, vote for it here. via allthecoolkids Nice! I was enamored with the Velib sharing systems I saw in Paris and Lyon. One Euro to rent a functional bike with lights and basket for an hour. These things were on every few street corners. I’d ride to and from work, and basically all over the place, if I wasn’t worried about what I’d do with my bike when I got there.
