I found the quiz confusing, so I stopped taking it. And the whole column of how others view those same problems, how am I supposed to answer that********** I don't have a crystal ball to view into thousands of other minds.

So let me make my own observations.....

I have used Capitol Bike Share on two trips to Washington DC. It was a great way to get around the DC Mall and out to some of the monuments near the river. I wish they would provide a map to all the locations that I can take with me. I don't have an iPhone so I don't care if there is an app for that. I wish there was a lock available for the bike so I could secure it while I visited the monuments, or went into a store for a short time. The signup was okay, though a little confusing at first. It was expensive if you were going to be on it for 2-3 hours. But as a tourist, I didn't mind. The bikes were so stiff that I found the Washington roads tended to beat my hands up. It would be nice if there was a good rack on back. I did try to figure out a way to stuff my suitcase on the bike, but gave up.
