【from Tokyo】Share cycles are becoming popular in central Tokyo

Remote work continued due to the influence of COVID-19. But my work has returned to normal, and I've been working more and more in central Tokyo as before.
The subway congestion during the day is not much different from before the pandemic, in my impression. So, some people may want to avoid that.

These photos show a bicycle parking lot in Minato Ward, one of the central areas of Tokyo.
Recently, wards in central Tokyo are promoting a share cycle to improve the health of the people of the ward. Perhaps to reduce public health insurance spending.
It costs about $ 1.4 per an hour or about $ 14 a day. The minimum fare for the Tokyo subway "Tokyo Metro" is about $ 1.6.

The subway is convenient for moving around central Tokyo, but sometimes the entrance to the ticket gate is far away. Depending on your destination, it may be easier to rent a bicycle than to take the subway.

Recently, I often see delivery staff of Uber Eats riding a share cycle. If you have a place to keep your Uber Eats's rucksack during office work, it may be a wise to do food delivery job using a share cycle, after your ordinally work.
