Episode Details

Citi Bike rides are getting pricey—members now pay over twelve bucks for a 45-minute e-bike trip, way more than a subway or bus. Advocates are pushing to cap fares at just three bucks, arguing it’s time for bike-share to match the affordability of other city transit. New York’s bike-share is among the most expensive in major U.S. cities, and while a council bill has been introduced, it’s stalled. Riders recall cheaper days before Lyft took over and compare NYC’s costs to other cities where biking is far more wallet-friendly. The city shares revenue with Lyft, but no concrete plan exists to lower prices—sparking heated debate over fairness and accessibility for everyday New Yorkers.
