#66 CITIBIKE MYSTERY

 

#66 CITIBIKE MYSTERY 

One afternoon, I count five Citibikes in the northwest corner where the druggies, jobless, and sometimes homeless hang out. 

Wait, how? A yearly membership is a pricey $185. This does not compute. 

A biker looking for a handout chats me up. 

                 He: “I just got out of prison doing five years for armed robbery.” 

 Am I supposed to be threatened or impressed? 

                Me: “Yeah, ok. so how did you get the Citibike?” 

 Then things get vague and he smiles. 

                He: "Maybe people don’t lock them right when they put them back.”

I know that’s the not the whole story, but that’s all I get. He gets a dollar for talking to me.
