We used a Blue Card last October, you can rent as many bicycles as you want but you have to have a "subscription" for each user. Which means separate user ID and PIN numbers. We took out two daily subscriptions each day for myself and my wife as we were only there for 5 days. We are going back in August and will get two weeklies. It's the best.
A good idea. Commenter qqbis - good idea! I know in NYC, we need to lessen car traffic to make it safe for bicycles. Note: I wish the video's music was less obnoxious, and there was less background noise on the video. Rather distracting.
if they intend reduce traffic car in 40% they should look at london congestion charging and use it together if bike, bus and metro improvements. i.e., get the car lanes and reverse it to public use as bike lanes, bus lanes etc.. reducing competitiveness of car use and increasing other modes
I was visiting Paris last week (thursday - sunday) and I saw those bikes in use and I wanted to try those also. We have a quite similar bike system here in Helsinki but our idiot locals keep breaking our bikes.
Can anyone tell me where from the one-day or one-year ticket can be taken? Coz when the man speaks here about credit card then suddenly he has the ticket in his hand. Do i need to go to some special office or i take it from the machine?
Nice presentation on a successful bike share program. Check out my video on discussion of a similar program in Philadelphia, USA. Some local politicians are behind the idea here. I hope that the idea transfers well, but some things would have to be different.
This is a great idea! I loved riding these when I was there. They should have them in the US.

if i were citizen of Paris i wouldnt ask anybody online, but i would go out and check by myself haha; i'm going to paris during summer
I tried, but the main website is so full with info that you get lost in there.

Nice, u must tell me when you are back. :)
It's very nice. But I'm very skeptical this will work in US cities.

I'm going to Paris with my 14 year son. I've gotten an AMEX Blue card. Can someone tell me if with one card I can rent two bikes at once?
Thanks.
Yes, you certainly can.
Yes sure no problem
