The number of bike-sharing programs in the U.S. has boomed over the past year, expanding the options for people seeking short-term bike rentals beyond the major city-sponsored programs like New York's Citi Bike. Some cities are struggling to keep up with the proliferation of dockless bike-share systems, which let users lock up wherever they find a public bike rack.

In a View From The Top conversation, Here & Now's Jeremy Hobson speaks with Ryan Rzepecki (@ryrzny), founder and CEO of bike-share company Jump Bikes.

This segment aired on July 2, 2018.
