On the other hand, Houston is NOT bicycle friendly (and I don’t really like bicycle friendly cities, they make cars second-class transportation) and it is SOOOOO spread out that the bikes will be a waste. I do not see much call for use as a commuter system in Houston since there is so little residential density close to the CBD. On the one hand, in a city as flat as Houston it might make sense. It’s main advantage (outside the District’s considerable density compared to Houston) was that the stations were everwhere. Something tells me the Houston version will not be as ubiquitous. I saw many people using the bikes on a drizzly day where the temperature was about 40 degrees F. I don’t know if these could be used to the same extent as places like Montreal, but a few stations scattered around downtown might work for tourists... The bikes were stole, dumped, trucked off and sold elsewhere - bottom line, it’s a dumb idea and a REAL dumb idea in a city with this climate and this spread out. There were well over 30 “Bixi” stations, each with racks for at least a couple of dozen bikes....
