I used to be on the "amateurs shouldn't be riding on Boston streets" side, but after Hubway released their first year results listing not a single incident, my opinion changed. Hubway is fantastic and the majority seem to be using it responsibly.
I agree -- anything that gets more bikes out there is a good thing, but we have to acknowledge there are trade-offs. Not to go too far down the Arlington Mark rabbit hole, but as an advanced cyclist, I'm probably better served by there being less infrastructure. But as an enthusiast for the idea that bikes are an important element of urban transportation, I have to side with more infrastructure, more bikes.
