Oleh this a fantastic topic and is very rich data. There's lots of bike share data, and its a great way to explore analysis and geocoding.
I co-sponsored a citibike data meetup last year and there's some interesting info there:

One of last year's students did bikeshare as a topic and wrote up a great blog about it:

I'm sure he'd be happy to talk to you more about it if interested.
