Was pondering over what to post today, when I stumbled across this video and simply had to post it here.

As an avid cyclist, and considering that I have just spent 6 weeks France, Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany exploring the cycling culture, for a research travel scholarship. I am quickly becoming addicted to any news or innovations that are cycle related. This is super interesting idea. As one of the huge problems, with increasing the cycling culture in Britain, which is the same worldwide, is the problem with theft. This seems to offer a reasonable solution to this problem, within reason. ie. for commuters whom park in the same place everyday.

Although it does not solve the problem of theft, in relation to freedom of movement...ie. Having the possibility to stop and place your bike wherever you may be.

It seems like a possible solution for stations that would be placed outside office buildings, stations and perhaps even university buildings.
