TUBE STRIKE? ON YER BIKE!

The RMT strike that nearly brought London to a standstill over the last two days inspired joes[a]fiend to get on its bike. Not wanting to contend with the walking pace of the overcrowded bus we sought out some wheels to zip around the city.

Delivered to your door by the cheerful proprietor, Wojtek, Dutch Bike Hire is the first service of its kind in London. Despite a couple of minor quibbles [‘that doesn’t quite look like the bike featured on the site’/’ah, the bell only works when stationary’] we loved the hassle free set-up and beat our colleagues to work by two hours.
