They are building cycle lanes in coventry View attachment 4258678 View attachment 4258680 A big push by our local council to make coventry a green place View attachment 4258684 View attachment 4258685 These cycle hire bikes are popping up all over the city i suppose its a good thing

They were tried here. They kept getting stolen, painted, and bought by pawn shops for twenty bucks. If a pawn shop refused to buy, they were simply discarded all over town. Now they're gone altogether.

It was a private company that tried it. If yours are backed by the city they'll likely stay around for a while since profit isn't an issue.

The cycle lanes are backed by the council but i think the bikes might be a private venture i'm not sure at the moment. there are places in coventry where they will be stolen who ever own's them will make no diffrence

Good luck with that. They tend to get strewn about town, stolen, destroyed, etc.

Thanks Rollie! I tagged along on a real photo shoot. I don’t live here so I’m not sure what’s on the street side of our location.

My wife is an author and she had a real photographer photograph her. Here’s one of my wife in the alley.

Beat me to it! No loose trash even around the dumpster. Do they have alley elves, who clean them every night?
