Sunday Mail: Glasgow’s NextBikes

Written by Fiona September 01 2014

Who knew that hire bikes could be so much fun? I noticed many more of these bikes being used around Glasgow but I was skeptical about how they would be to ride. After all, I’m a keen cyclist who loves the benefits of lightweight carbon and numerous gears.

But on a recent outing in the city, I found the NextBike was easy to cycle and very good value for money. Many more residents, commuters and tourists are discovering the same. Here’s my article about Glasgow’s Nextbikes – and it coincides with Cycle to Work Day on September 4. Read pdfs at 16 (26) and 17 (22)sm.aug31lsm.aug31r
