Bike sharing - Part 2

Back in November, yours truly noted that the UCLA bike sharing program appeared to be drying up, given the competition from e-scooters.* He wondered whether the bike sharing program - which featured pedal-only bikes - could persist. Of course, nowadays in coronavirus time, with the number of people on campus limited, no one is doing much riding on anything.

UCLA's program offered prorated refunds to bike rental subscribers this summer:

(Apparently, it's too late to request a refund if you haven't already done so, according to the link above.)

Now Santa Monica, which had a similar program, has terminated it officially and will sell off, give away, or "recycle" the bikes:

It's hard to imagine that the UCLA program can be revived.
