Can anyone operate bike sharing operations "effectively"? To be specific, actually run a city wide bike sharing operation profitably without government subsidies and/or corporate sugar daddy benevolence.

So far the only thing some of the bike/scooter sharing endeavors have been "effective" at is raising venture capital to burn up in money losing operations.
