Don't do it!
Logically, signing up for Pink would remove you from Bike Angels, right? Why would Lyft undermine Bike Angels when they are doing such a poor job of balancing the bikes?

Over the past few months there have been too few bikes uptown and midtown, and far too many bikes in Brooklyn - specifically lower Park Slope, Kensington, and Red Hook. It seems to me that many of the places where bikes are lacking are on higher ground, and many of the places where there are too many are on lower ground. The non-Angel users of Citibikes are mostly riding downhill, and there is not enough balancing being done by Lyft. TheBike Angel program used to use a more varied point structure that helped balance the bikes more, but now the points seem to have been limited to 4 points maximum. There are simply not enough Bike Angels incentives to ride these heavy bikes uphill in enough numbers to combat the downhill trend.
