Do you have any idea if there is a limit of time that you can use the bicycle because it's free.

Many libraries I know have free internet service for people to use, but with limited time of 30 min, 1hr. so others can use the service also.

I wonder if it comes with free life insurance. I sense another PR disaster in the making.
