Capital Bikeshare fought with the Parks Service for years to put stations at the mall. It was extremely popular before NPS finally consented. You're right that tourists now boost the numbers. As far as DC being super small goes, stations are also throughout Arlington and Alexandria (DC+Arlington+Alexandria = 100 sq miles), as well as north to Silver Spring and Bethesda, and out in Tyson's Corner and Reston. https://secure.capitalbikeshare.com/map/ https://secure.capitalbikeshare.com/map/
