of course those not interested in a divvy-e adventure and not babying their own bikes would be free to ride them :-)

regular divvys don't come with locks, so we'd need to bring our own for 18th st.

ok, learned a couple things today!

• the colors on the divvy map are for the 2 divv-e fee zones (together, their "service area")
• if we end (or start) a divv-e ride in the outer gray zone we get free minutes and they waive their usual "out-of-station parking fee"
• if we park a divv-e outside their service area, for example over the state line, they dock us $25

so, divv-e as far southeast as we can, divvy to 18th st. and FFF and back to their service area, then divv-e home?

otoh rain when it's 82 is a lot different than rain when it's 42. partly i just got my bike washed and don't want it to get wet. :-)

divv-e? right now there are 8 at E 134th St & S Avenue O, and 3 of them have an estimated range of 16 miles. alas, from there it's 10 miles to FFF. hmm, plain old-fashioned divvy?
