ysea··on Dock-less bike share is ready to take over U.S. cities
They've been great in Seattle. I mostly ride my own bike around but have used dock-less bikes for connecting the last-mile on a bus trip. A small percentage are poorly parked and when I walk by I take the 5 seconds to move a bike or pick one up that's fallen over. No biggie.

I also like that it is putting pressure on the stupid nanny-state helmet law.

ysea··on Climate Impacts of Biking vs. Driving
Precisely, I either bike or bus to work every day. If I take the bus I do some other form of exercise instead. And I certainly don't eat less on the days I ride the bus. I would imagine most people that get around by bike maintain a steady level of exercise during times when they are biking less.

Whether or not the author's intent was to discourage biking and encourage driving they have done exactly that.
