TIL about "wrenching”.

The #CitiBike bikeshare program has e-bikes & pedal bikes. E-bikes cost money to use; pedal bikes are free to members.

If a bike station has no pedal bikes available, only e-bikes, you can get a free e-bike ride.

"Wrenching" is pressing the 'wrench' button (marking a bike as broken) on every pedal-bike in the station so you get a free e-bike ride. The 'broken' bikes remain disabled & unusable for everyone until the techs come out to replace them.

People are jerks.
