Citi Bike Has Already Surpassed 10,000 Trips Per Day

11:57 AM EDT on May 31, 2013

Bike-share users made 10,099 trips, and annual membership continued to surge in the third full 24-hour period of usage stats that Citi Bike is reporting.

Usage between 5 p.m. Wednesday and 5 p.m. Thursday topped 10,000 trips, an increase of about 33 percent over the previous 24 hours. Meanwhile, an additional 2,449 annual subscribers joined the system -- a bigger jump than the prior day -- bringing the total to 23,749.

Before this Wednesday-to-Thursday period, Citi Bike ridership was already outpacing the early usage of bike-share systems in Boston and DC.
