rental bikes

I was going to blog about the new Gucci bike but in my attempt to ask the question:

"What does it mean when the likes of Chanel, Gucci and Paul Frank are designing bikes to sell lifestyle? but I found this article a lot more interesting. (stay tuned for my blog entry about pop fashion co-opting the bicycle)

In today's Le Monde, Jaque Fortier reports that politicians in Strasbourg, France are vying for the cyclist vote. Where 7-10% of trips are made by bicycle,the cyclist vote is one that could make the difference, so every politician is rolling out its bicycle program....Barak, Hillary....what are your bicycle programs?
