The Bike Hut on Pier 40

Why does bike commuting and public transit flourish in San Francisco? Why do they have THREE competing car-share companies, while we have none? Here's one reason--it's expensive to PARK a car. A big attraction to joining a car-sharing program here is not having to find (and pay for) a place to park.
