Agree it will be a long time... we'll probably have our cycle superhighway before then and that's not scheduled til 2015.


I think they've set the gearing so that the very unfit have a chance to use them. I can't imagine using them in anything other than 3rd and it feels v low compared to my regular one.


Apparently there have been a few nicked and spotted in other places outside the zone like Croydon etc

ha, my housemates went out in Shoreditch and after a few beers stumbled across a Boris Bike stand. Their hazy, blurry eyes convinced them that the terms and conditions were ?1 hire for 24 hours use!!! I woke up in our East Dulwich house to find 2 Boris Bikes in the corridor, and 2 smarmy housemates, convinced they'd found 'the secret' to cheap transport in London. In the 23rd hour they returned the bikes to Elephant & Castle. 3 weeks later, got their bank statements, ?52 EACH!

    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant. 
    • Still, I guess it could be a lot worse than water being thrown at you by these numpty youths during these warmer times? thankfully it wasn't the more dangerous mugging type youths that crossed your path waving knifes and guns in your face!  just a thought? hopefully these muppets will get sorted by plod soon, but don't hold your breath. 
    • Another dramatic spike the previous May 24 -  both crimes around the car park -  could this be related to the massively increased numbers of people around Gala time?
