I live in NYC, and use CitiBike ~10 times a week. I own my own bike, too: $105 (after-tax price) is incredibly cheap for me not to have to worry about locking my bike up outside of my friend's apartment overnight, or finding a safe place to lock up outside my office. Even if it only prevents me from losing a shifter or getting my brake cables cut, it's worth the money. If I'm going some place that I can bring my bike inside, I ride my own bike. But for ~80% of trips in NY, CitiBike is more convenient (plus, if I meet up with friends, I'm not chained to my bike anymore, and can just use the subway like everyone else).
