Santa Barbara , CA
Convenience of riding a bike and getting to a destination more quickly. Also useful for things like bike repair or car repair drop offs when you need another way to be back home.

After our first rental, I found the bikes to be in reasonable condition, although you may have to try a couple do to low batteries, or some component (brakes, etc.) being in less that good condition. Strangely, picking up the bikes was no issue, but finding a place to return them was harder. We did find places for them in the end. All in all a great thing to use.

I love using BCycle as a way to get around town easily!

We had a great experience picking up bikes yesterday and heading downtown for the Solstice Parade. I really appreciate the number of stations available, especially on busy days. The bikes were well maintained and we enjoyed dropping off and picking up in convenient locations. Thank you!

I like that the bikes are close to my home and work until today. This afternoon the Cabrillo Puerto Vallarta station got taken away. I am so sad. Maybe you can bring it back?

Convenient and fun

Great alternative transportation, especially if you live downtown

Very convenient and an absolute life-saver for medical appointments.

It’s convenient especially the addition of more bike ports in the Eastside. Promotes exercise!

I appreciate the access (there seems to be ample stations where I need them) and the bikes are well maintained. I don’t have a car and I use my analog bike for fun and BCycle for purpose like running errands.

Availability and ease of usage.

Super easy to use, intuitive, and well placed stations make getting around very convenient.

I liked the electric bike feature, which helped pedal against the wind.

It was easy to rent and return. Great way to get around.

It was very easy to sign up and to rent our bikes. The bikes were well-maintained and fun to ride.

Very easy to use

Going uphill without a sweat!

It works well but is expensive

Availability. App ease. Makes visiting SB a fun experience every time. Downside was my first bike would not keep battery engaged despite full charge. Luckily was able to swap but unfortunately was charged 8 dollars for the faulty bike I used for all of 3 minutes.

Somehow I didn't realize that. My rental had gone through so I did it again so I got charged twice when I really only meant to get it once. But as long as the past never expires, I'll use it again on the in the end of June on another trip I make on the train. It was really nice and convenient though I didn't feel like walking home nor spending the money for an Uber so it saved me a few dollars. Even though I still had to walk three blocks, I feel it was worth it.
