Ride Your Bike Today, Get Cash for Gas Tomorrow
A startup is proposing a new way to incentivize alternative transportation choices by giving people the option each day to choose between cars, bikes and transit.

Mo's Vimeo page explains: "mo subscribers can rent bikes, cargobikes, ebikes and cars or use public transportation with just one card.
