What does it mean "rule a bike"?
If you ride the same bike the most time of our users you will "rule the bike". It means that bike is virtually "yours" untill someone else ousts you

Badges are rewards for the users who use the application the most. We are planning to keep adding more and more cool badges as the app grows so make sure you keep riding
