 London Bike Rental

London Cycle Hire - Barclays Cycle Hire - Hostels247 Travel Blog
Is this a Bike Rental revolution in London

London has followed in the foot steps of other cities such as Amsterdam, Paris and Cardiff and now Londoners and visitors can rent one of 6,000 rental bikes.

Once all the usual personal and credit card information is provided you can rent a bike, if you’re going on a short trip of less than 30 minutes then its free to use the bikes, any time longer than that up to a couple of hours then you pay an additional fee which is quite expensive, and for any time longer than a couple of hours the traditional bike rental option is a much better choice.

One thing that must be remembered is to leave enough time to find a parking space in one of the bike rental bays otherwise you will be stuck with a hefty £150 let return fee, and a definite no, no is to leave the bike outside a shop while you nip in for some bread and milk, because if the bike is damaged or stolen you will liable to pay up to £300 to cover the loss or damage.

All in all the new London Barclays Cycle Hire is expensive compared to normal bike rental services and public transportation, but if you fancy a quick ride and can get somewhere and park your bike within 30 minutes then its worth a try for free.
