Pedal Power

Are you planning a trip to Paris? You can visit the City of Light on a bike!

 

  Every day, Julian gets up, gets dressed and goes to work in Paris, France. He usually goes by car, but this week is different. Julian isn’t taking his car, he’s going by bike. 

  Julian is one of Paris’s 195,000 users of Vélib’, a bicycle hire network which started in 2007. With Vélib’, people can go to a special station and take a bicycle. They take it where they want to go, and leave it at another station. There are thousands of Vélib’ stations around the city with over 20,000 bicycles at their disposal. 

  It isn’t only in France. Across Europe, projects like Vélib’ are becoming popular. People are traveling more by bicycle and less by car. There are urban bicycle networks in cities in Spain, England, Austria, Germany, Holland, Denmark and Finland. Other countries across Europe are thinking of similar projects. 

  ‘I think it’s great. The trip to work is not very long, I feel good and it’s cheap’, says Julian. 

  Pick a Vélib’ up from one station and then leave it at another one near your destination. What could be easier than that?
