Bikes in Lyon

    I saw these bikes in Lyon but wasn't sure what they were for. Thanks to a Treehugger article I now know:

      I've been reading a lot about Lyon's bicycle program. Would you be willing to post this in the Bicycle Facilities group? Thanks!

      Man, that setup represents a whole lot of thought. The bikes look like they're basically molded out a single piece of...plastic.

      I believe those are Smart Bikes.

      my boyfriend and i rented some similar ad bikes in ljubljana, slovenia. they weren't the smoothest ride of all time, but it was lots of fun, and allowed us to stumble upon this bizarre bit of public art:

      My excuse explanation is that most of my travels are specifically to further our understanding of how to reduce carbon emissions from buildings and so I will save more CO2 in the long run.

      Okay, okay, it's weak, I know.
