  • Bike hire in London? Go by Uber

    From Spike@21:1/5 to All on Fri Jun 30 20:46:56 2023
    Hiring is hardly a sustainable option, either. Last week a 12-minute Lime
    Bike to Brixton cost me £7 — just a pound less than an Uber, and much less safe.

    I wonder how much luggage a Santander Chav-Bike rider can carry?

    And several people can share an Uber…what’s not to like?
