Velib power!
I really think I should get a commission from the city of Paris for all the people I introduce to the Velibs. Sometimes you gotta start them young. Have you noticed it's impossible not to smile on a Velib? Biking in pairs under the Paris moon? Yes, please. Now, don't you want to ride one??
Apparently Paris will be staring an Autolib service similar to the velib service. I wonder if they'll be Smart Cars...would be fitting for Paris, I suppose.
Lady Em - good to know! Not that I'll be getting behind the wheel, but sounds like a cool program (and it sounds like there will be some new maniacs on the road to be aware of ;) ).
Meg, get some good gloves and a bike helmet, and you'll be good to go.
Ker, we'll have to keep the photo evidence under wraps from Trin's mom.
I do ! I do !! I would even ride one here, but prefer the thought of Velibing in Paris.
ReplyDeleteSo fun! Trinity Mom's would kill her for riding in the busy streets of Paris :)
ReplyDeleteI'm back in Paris in December ... may be a bit chilly but I will definitely try one.

And Candice, when are you coming to Paris??
It won't be this year, but 2011 sounds like it might be a year of changes for us ... perhaps in big ways .
