As promised, the city has begun installing each of the 100+ bike stations that will constitute the new Capital Bikeshare program. The program is a replacement for the existing SmartBike program, which will be discontinued this fall.
I don't know if you can tell with the crummy camera phone-quality pic, but the new stations look a bit more space-agey than the SmartBike stations.

They look like the velib stations in Paris. Pretty easy to use.
I was just in Montreal last week and they have the exact same system. It is AMAZING. Easy to use and so convenient. Hope it works as well here in DC.
my wife and i are excited. it's going to be great for the city. good stuff.
