Of course, per my recent post, people in markets where their Bike Angel points are now "banked", they can use 80 of their bank points to extend their membership.
In the past, points reset each month, so we had to get back on the bike earning 80 pts each month.
Now, people in certain markets, have the opportunity to ride a few days, earn 1,000pts, and "bank" 12 months of membership extensions
So... theoretically, if many of the Bike Angels never make it onto the LEADERBOARD, and usually ride just for the 80pts a month, they can now add on a few days of additional riding ONCE to accumulate around 500 - 1,000 pts and a full year worth of membership extensions, therefore eliminating the monthly necessity to ride for points.
Are the top 20 on the LEADERBOARD carrying the bike redistribution program?
I suspect that might be true. Because, Lyft has the data, and if many of the Angels start earning their yearly membership extensions in a few days or weeks and stop redistributing for the rest of the year, that's a lot of bikes each month that are not going to get moved.
