They tried the dockless bike system in Nashua starting in 2018, then added scooters in 2019. VeoRide has quietly dropped the contract with the city, and I think the issue was the high cost of maintenance and hunting down the vehicles. Only good thing about it is it didn't cost the city anything.
The one time I considered using a bike, I was returning home from dropping off my own bike at the shop for repair and figured I'd use the bike share for the 2.5 mile ride. I decided to walk when I found out I had to prepay for $10 worth of rides in order to use it for the supposedly free trial ride. Rides normally were fifty cents, so I never would have used that up..
