The article's statement that these bikes wouldn't get stolen didn't really assure me, so I looked at the stats for my city's bike sharing service. According to one news report:
> One bike went missing the first year and it was later recovered. Last year all were accounted for. This year three or four are missing, but Dossett expects them to turn up.
I suppose the distinctiveness of the bicycles has something to do with it, plus, they're relatively difficult to maneuver.
