For those in DC, here is an end of year look at what our Bike Angel achieved in 2024! http://adcjourney.com/2025/01/09/capital-bikeshares-bike-angels-2024-end-of-year-report/ cheers JB991JB9912 months agoResourceful Rider18Views0likes0CommentsMaps showing Bay Wheels usage in SF
Neat article about where ppl are riding in SF https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/bay-wheels-bike-map-19972251.php "Top corridors for riders so far this year included stretches along the Embarcadero, through Golden Gate Park, Fisherman’s Wharf to the Presidio and the Caltrain station to the Dogpatch neighborhood." I've been meaning to ride through Golden Gate Park one of these days; that's a nice ride.bwitt3 months agoSteady Solver24Views2likes0CommentsHow are people accumulating so many points?!
I’m just wondering how some angels are amassing soooo many points. I’m in awe! I thought I was doing a lot when I hit 450 points last month but I see some are doing that in one day. How?!? also seems like a bike angels ride/meet up could be fun 👀Jhill5 months agoResourceful Rider827Views1like11CommentsPoint of reporting "decent" bike conditions?
When reporting a problem with a bike via the wrench button and subsequent web/app survey I'm asked to choose between two conditions: decent or bad. Regardless of what's wrong, when selecting "decent", the bike is immediately made available again for anyone else to use. Only bikes reported as being in "bad" condition are locked out from use for others. So, what's the point of reporting decent bikes if they're going to continue being used around the system? Does the Lyft team do anything with "decent" bike reports? If not, is the option there purely for psychological reasons? If a problem is bad enough to affect the safety or severely makes the bike unrideable then I always report it as bad.RedDragon5 months agoResourceful Rider30Views1like0CommentsCapital Bikeshare (CaBi) Bike Angels Leaderboard
It seems like the NYC community has been going strong for a number of years, but not so much for Washington, DC riders participating in Bike Angels. We haven't been getting any updates or information about what is happening, so I'm glad we are now being invited to this community forum. In 2021 I started keeping track of Bike Angel Monthly Winners and the point totals, and have been maintaining these stats for DC. Very unscientific! I got into doing Bike Angels for a few reasons, the competition (hence keeping track), it's a good way to get exercise, and it's an excellent way to explore DC. For CaBi Bike Angels, here is your historical leaderboard and list of winners if you haven't come across it previously. https://adcjourney.com/bike-angels/ cheers JB991 P.S. Riders have gotten a little wild in terms of point totals in the last 5 months, maybe a direct correlation to the fact that CaBi added the option to redeem points for gift cards. We don't get money like NYC, how do we change that???JB9915 months agoResourceful Rider110Views3likes8CommentsLet's get to know each other a bit more!
Hello Bike Angels! My name is Sef and I work on the Bike Angels team, tinkering behind the scenes with many of my great teammates. We are super excited to be launching our Bike Angels Community and even more jazzed about adding all our Angels and riders in the future. As we grow the Community we want to incorporate your ideas for what would make this a helpful and fun space to check out. So always be open with what you want to find in the Community and we will see if we can make it happen. To get started, we want to get to know YOU. What got you excited about Bike Angels in the first place? What keeps you riding today? What is your favorite leisure trip when you aren’t hustling for points? (extra street cred for photos of your favorite spot or ride) Post your answers for the questions above in the thread so we can all get to know one another! P.S. We had an open bug where when you logged out the site would remove your profile picture, but this is fixed now. As you introduce yourself be sure to add a profile photo to your account. Looking forward to getting to know you all!sef5 months agoBike Angels Team4KViews3likes15Comments
