City Visit – Paris.
This is where it all begins………
Le Velo Libre!! The true freedom of the city, unlock, get on and switch off!!!
It looks a little daunting, but actually it is quite simple.
It starts from here, you make a small registration, pay by credit card, your given a number, then go and pick up the bike!
It is as easy as that!
Just remember to follow all the steps!
(Unlike me,) Including the step…… after – “Choose your Bike!”
as this is where you actually need to select on the key pad which bike you will take!! (I was thinking that all the bikes were now at my disposal, but no! I needed to make a selection!)
So as I was……., thinking…….. just to go to the bike and……… “start pulling like ‘A Crazy Jewel thief’ looking for his getaway bike!”
No, it is much simpler-
Just type in the number of the bike you would like to use, press ‘validate’ and “ Hey Presto!”, it de-magnetizes before your eyes!
…….Now you can leave!
Excellent!- riding from Nation to Rue Etienne Marcel, beautiful!
Clear sky, fresh(ish) air and the total freedom of a quiet Northern European City, Paris.
Très Cool!
