     Bike sharing programs since then have required some sort of payment. The first of these programs came in 1995 in Copenhagen, Denmark. It put locked bikes at specific sites around the city. Riders used coins to unlock the bikes, and they got their money back when they returned the bikes. The program began with 1,100 bikes. Theft still was a problem, so the program switched to bikes that look different from standard bikes, have different parts, and require special tools to take them apart. Those changes have allowed it to survive even today.
