I made it so I could ask "where's the nearest Jump bike?" in Sacramento. At some point the API stopped working, but, after checking today, it was just the URLs of the updated feeds had changed (the old ones still 200 with no actual data) so I think I've managed to fix it.
Unfortunately, Jump shut down in Sacramento because of Corona virus!
Overall, it only works OK. When Apple Shortcuts requests GPS location, it doesn't just return the GPS, it makes a HTTP call to get the street info, which isn't needed here and slows things down. Then the gbfs.uber.com API is very slow... as though they don't cache at all, whereas I thought they only refreshed once/minute: https://gbfs.uber.com/v1/sacb/station_information.json https://gbfs.uber.com/v1/sacb/station_information.json
