Here's a must-read: David's post about his father, who had not owned a bike in 37 years, trying bikeshare. With bikeshare, you don't have to own a bike to reap the benefits of bicycling as basic transportation.
Honorable Mention: Folding bikes can be very useful in this age of multimodal transportation. Read Tom's review of his Dahon Eco-3.

They aren't great bikes but they are bikes that work, and have 'be seen' lights. Having a couple of bikes didn't stop me from getting a membership in Hubway and using it at work. Nice idea here. Like David's post.
I rode CitiBike for the first time this week on a business trip. I was able to navigate all across the city despite temps in the teens. The process for purchasing a short-term pass could be improved, but overall I was happy with the experience. There is no other way to explore a city than by bike.
