Bikeshare wants the public to know they can still use the bikes without a key if you use your credit card for a one to three day membership. If you are already a member and your key is broken, just call customer service and they will issue a temporary membership.

“I’m using Bikeshare to try and support alternate modes of transportation, and it’s also just a much more pleasant way to experience Washington, D.C.”
