Recently, our city’s Newspaper of Record (TM) reported that women use the bike sharing service Citibike far less often than men do. According to the article, women account for one-third of all members (that is, people with a one-year pass to use the bikes at any time for up to 45 minutes per trip) and about a quarter of all trips.
Assuming that we want more women on bikes, let’s see if the numbers can help of find a solution.
