@ny1: What if a 45-minute electric Citi Bike ride was capped at $3? A new campaign from Transportation Alternatives is calling for just that: capping the price for Citi Bike members at $3, which is the cost of a subway or bus ride. Let us know what you think below.

In some cities outside of NYC you could buy a bike and ride it for free. No joke I heard this.

Buy your own bike to save money. Citi bike can only ride 30 minute limits, that’s why I never ride it.

3$ is more than fair, anything more is just greed, they want you to own nothing and be happy, they've even paid bots.

Tax payers should not subsidize a private company. Citibike is a private business. If you commute mainly by bike, buy your own.

meanwhile it will save people so much more money to buy their own bike... but keep overpaying to rent a bike .... I hope they raise the prices even more

Let more competition into the bike sharing market to drive the prices down!

I pay the yearly membership and let me tell you it’s still gets expensive, reducing the fair would make the membership so much better
