With the Hire Bike Scheme up and running, we can spend the next few weeks doing the interesting stuff: discussing interestingly-located docking stations, best free sub-half-hour routes, and so on.
Here's a candidate for the most inappropriately situated docking station, given the sponsors of the scheme... (it's on Southwark St).
I spent some time at the Bricklayers Arms docking station on Friday night trying to convince a chap who was interested in using the bike hire scheme that you didn't need to be a Barclays Bank customer in order to sign up...

And who will be the first to ride every bike available? I can cross two off the list.
