Temporal Pattern Insights:
Clear bi-modal distribution with two major peaks at 8 AM and 5 PM
These peaks strongly align with typical workday commute times
The evening peak (around 450 rentals) is notably higher than the morning peak (around 350 rentals)
Lowest usage occurs between 2-4 AM (fewer than 50 rentals)
Rental activity begins to rise sharply from 5 AM onwards
After the morning peak, there’s a midday plateau between 10 AM and 4 PM (around 250 rentals)
Post-evening peak, rentals gradually decline from 6 PM to midnight
Need for increased bike availability and maintenance around peak hours
Opportunity for system rebalancing during low-usage early morning hours
Possible pricing strategies could be implemented during peak demands
Staff scheduling should align with these usage patterns
Higher evening peak might suggest:
People are more likely to take leisure rides after work
Some commuters might only ride one-way (perhaps due to weather or morning meetings)
Additional non-commute usage mixing with commuter traffic
Focus maintenance during off-peak hours (2-4 AM)
Ensure maximum bike availability before both peak periods
Consider surge pricing during peak hours to manage demand
Plan rebalancing operations during the midday plateau

Weather Impact Insights:
Key insights from this analysis:
Clear weather (1) shows the highest rental numbers with the widest distribution
Rentals decrease significantly as weather conditions worsen
Heavy rain/severe weather (4) shows the lowest rental numbers with least variance
The ANOVA test likely shows significant differences between weather groups (p < 0.05)
Tukey’s HSD test would reveal specific differences between weather condition pairs
Each weather category shows some outliers, particularly in better weather conditions
The spread (variance) of rentals decreases with worsening weather
Clear and mist/cloudy conditions show more variability in rental numbers
Weather strongly influences rental behavior
Need for weather-based inventory management
Possible need for weather-based pricing strategies
Marketing and promotion strategies could be tailored to weather conditions
Maintain larger fleet availability during clear weather
Implement weather-based demand forecasting
Consider weather-specific maintenance schedules
Develop bad-weather incentives to stabilize demand
