That's a dumb metric. Now, let me be the first to say that Flywheel wasn't very successful in competing with Uber (and there are tons of reasons for that that I could expand upon if anyone is super interested).

But we were plenty successful in creating a system in which people who wanted to get a ride were able to hail our drivers and our drivers could come and pick up the passengers and they could cancel and see ETAs and so forth. We served hundreds of thousands of rides while I was there, and presumably more in the two years since I left.
