if you have a Barclays Hire Bike for more than 24hrs you get fined...

so what do you think is possible in 24hrs?

Mont Ventoux?

In reply to rallymania:
Can we STOP calling them Boris Bikes! They're Barclays Bikes, or even Barclays Cycle Hire.

BJ had bugger all to do with their inception, that was down to Ken Livingstone, BoJo was just the jammy git that was in office when they were launched! It sickens me, yes sickens me, that he is getting credit for this when the first thing he did was reduce the congestion zone and has since double the cost of hiring the bikes - wanker!

In reply to Tony the Blade:
But Barclays are withdrawing their sponsorship, which just leaves us with Boris!


Anyway "Livingstone Bikes" doesn't roll off the tongue so easily.

In reply to Tony the Blade:



ask and you shall receive sir!

In reply to Trangia:

right... enough you two... back to your rooms!

In reply to Trangia:




How about Bolshevik Bikes.

In reply to rallymania:

WOW - loving the fact we can now edit posts!

Cheers guvnor

In reply to Trangia:


Or just London bikes, hire bikes, bikes... although I do like the suggestion of Bolshevik bikes

In reply to Tony the Blade:

Come the glorious Revolution there'll be Ten thousand brave comrades riding Bolshevik Bikes down the mall to rid us of our Royal Oppressors and set us on a path to a golden communist utopia.


(or more likely 50 soap dodgers living 'alternative' lifestyles p!ssing everyone off with a critical mass demonstration)

In reply to rallymania:

anyway... about the video!!!!!!

In reply to Tony the Blade:



Nice rant

In reply to Trangia:

and havent contributed that much anyway. How about giving their name pro-rata and getting Bar Bikes?

In reply to Skol:


Aiiiii thangyou

In reply to Tony the Blade:


Hard to say whether it's worse giving Boris or Barclays a boost in the collective mindset, I'd say.

In reply to Removed UserBwox:


I hear you... lesser of two evils.

London bike hire is my preferred.

In reply to rallymania:

After riding through the tunnel and all the way through France I would have thought the hill at the end would be the easy bit

In reply to Tony the Blade:


Bonkers Bikes, perhaps? (note careful lack of apostrophe...)

Can you tell I'm not convinced by them?

In reply to captain paranoia:

I think they're brilliant. Have helped me see more of London rather than just the Tube, and unlike buses or walking they are almost as quick as the Tube.
