Did you ride today?

They get maintained regularly. There is a main garage that the trucks bring the bikes to where mechanics replace parts (tires, pedals, chains and the like), do basic/preventative maintenance, etc. If the bikes are damaged beyond a certain point they donate them to other programs in third-world countries.
Plus the tires are filled with Nitrogen.

I have seen the big box trucks that move them from site to site. I have also seen a dude riding a bike towing a trailer which had 4 citibikes on it. I have also seen a small minivan which was vinyl wrapped with CitiBike all over it and there was a guy actually work on a bike at the kiosk. I'm sure for anything in depth it goes back to the garage/shop.

I was curious about the chain after Iggy asked, they are definitely chain drive. It has a chain guard on the top but the bottom of the chain is open. And it was definitely rusty! Lol

P.S. Can we have a CitiBike class added to the short track races in March?

I think we should have interventions...there are some of us in need of one. I'm suffering from extreme lackoriding...:cry:
