Washington Post: Dockless bike-share is officially here: Dockless bikes – the newest trend in bike-share – were spotted across D.C. Wednesday, as part of the launch for at least three companies. Kishan Putta, an avid rider and longtime member of Capital Bikeshare, used a Mobike to commute to work Wednesday and the trip went relatively seamlessly, he said. It was convenient to drop it right in front of his office and to not have to worry about full docks. The only downside, he said, he noticed there was no notification that the ride had started or a timer clocking the ride.
