London's bike hire scheme on its way

Posted 17 June 2010 19:03 by jamie

I had my doubts they'd get them all installed on time for the launch on July 30, but then again, I've rarely seen so many men in hi-viz jackets (Stamford Street, Waterloo):

I hope the scheme's a huge (£140 million) success…but I do have visions of a cycling newbie jumping on and gliding off merrily towards the mayhem of Waterloo roundabout…Ugh.

Fingers crossed.
