Those Velib bicycles are $3500 each like the windows in my house are $30000 each - after all, I had to erect a building around them to keep them up, and that costs some real money!

Indeed. A $3500 bike does not look like a Velib. With that much money to spend, you are at the professional racing bike level. Maybe remove two zeros and you have Velib :)
