BARCLAYS CYCLE HIRE

There is a self-service bicycles sharing municipal program for short journeys in central London. Nearly 6,000 bikes are available for hire in more than 400 stations spread throughout the city, 24/24, all year round.
Charges for access to bicycles + Fees to use the bicycles during the rental period (Occasional / Casual User, 24 hours or 7 days) from any terminal of the Barclays Cycle Hire, or online.

GOOD IDEA : there is no user fee for any trip under 30 minutes; so you can ride a bike all day for £1 (user fees) if all trips take less than 30 minutes each!
