One of the most interesting parts of class 9 was meeting Mark and discussing the JUMP bike. I was very curious as to how the system of the bikes worked regarding leaving it off at certain places that aren’t charging stations as well as how the company was built from the ground up. It was my first time heading how a business was made, from it starting as an idea to going through many obstacles to get the city to approve of it as well as finding support from outside sources. It showed me how much ambition and grit must be put into an idea for it to become a success, which can be applied to many other aspects of life. Riding the JUMP bike was an interesting experience because it was my first time riding a bike with many components of technology embedded into it, especially the sudden assisted boost you get from peddling fast.
