I had lots of reservations about this article until Stephen made it clear that the idea is to disincentivize rush hour CB use to the point when people start using their own bikes.

I rode like I was the king of Bikeshare all winter until ridership exploded, and I got my own bike. I still use bikeshare for awkward trips (one ways, late nights, sudden changes in plans) and will advocate it for anyone interested in biking who doesn't know if s/he wants to spend hundreds of dollars on a bike in the city. But these people should graduate from CB and get a bike.

That said, I know my experience is only an anecdote in the plethora of experiences with CB, but it has made my experience with CB remain a positive one, and it leaves an extra bike in the mornings in Columbia Heights for someone else to use!
