some pictures

Before Another new bicycle lane, but the rubber bumpers which are used as separation to the car lanes are already broken. The city keeps fixing them, but it just takes two days for them breaking up again. You can have a look on google street view how the street looked before. After
Picture from the recent bicing census, they used stickers to mark the bikes which were already counted. I don't thing the result was published anywhere, but it would be very interesting to look at. With this they also tried to find out how many bikes are broken. I added a new feature to api.bicingwatch.com to try to find out how many bikes & anchors are broken at a station, you can see an example here, it is the black line in the "Today" graph.
Some of the bikes really do fall apart. This one doesn't even look so old.
