Montreal inaugurated a bike sharing program that shows the world how humans must think for now on. ( or must have been thinking for a long time )

You have a “Bike user card”, and use it to take the bike out of its bay. You ride that bike to your destity, and park it again at the nearest Bike Bay. While that bike was moving, it was generating eletric energy with a dynamo. When you park it, it will automatically discharge that battery to the bay. The energy will go the Bike Sharing Program net, to charge the eletric batteries of several busses that are linked to the Bikes program. Great isn’t it? The riders fuel the bus.

It gets even better, because you used your personal bike card, the system knows who rode each bike, and therefore knows if you generate enough energy to ride the bus for free. Awesome!

I know it’s a bit confusing, and I didn’t explained it very well, but you can check the detailed information at NYTimes.
