Bike sharing systems allow you to localize bike storage, removing the need to transport bikes long distances. Instead, transit by bicycle is reduced to middling distances where they have an advantage over both walking and cars. Second, I don't see how this isn't entrepreneurship. By the author's logic, if I design a workflow system which streamlines compliance measures and so allows a city or state to shift more of their workforce to telecommuting, I'm not an entrepreneur. But clearly, I found a specific problem (regulations that hamper telecommuting) and privately engineered a solution to them; why my customer base is an issue isn't clear. I'd argue, in fact, that this kind of entrepreneurship may be far more important than others because of the impact government has. The next geosocial app won't produce nearly as much value in the economy as, e.g., the workflow software considered above if only because it reduces government waste.
