Like many other cities, Berlin has jumped on the city bike bandwagon. For a small annual fee, you get access to rental bicycles all around the city. I think it's a great way to get around, especially in a bike-friendly city like Berlin! Photo taken in November 2011. If you'd like to see more red shots from around the world, visit Ruby Tuesday.
They look far nicer than the ones I have seen in London- there are none here in Manchester ;-(
ReplyDeleteA great way to explore the city!
ReplyDeleteSo beautifully arranged!
ReplyDeleteMy Ruby Tuesday, please come and see. Thanks!
I think it's a terrific idea.
ReplyDeleteVery nice entry for RT!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing;o)

Hope you are having a nice and happy week****
I love this idea. I also love biking while in another place - great way to see things and easily stop to photograph!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea and from what I've heard it's worked pretty well in a number of cities. Somehow, though, I have my doubts about it working well in the U.S.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of bikes: I rode along with Lois on her 5-mile walk/run this morning. It was hot! We're running the A/C in the house and in the car!
The weather could change tomorrow, of course. But so far, so good!
What a fun shot! I love the rental bikes popping up all over in cities and towns. Such a great idea.
ReplyDeleteI hope it catches on around the world! What a wonderful concept. It was tried here in Portland (Oregon) a while back, but all of the bikes just ... disappeared. They're talking about trying again, with more distinctive designs.
ReplyDeleteThat's great! Wish there were more places like that.
ReplyDeletePerfect for Ruby Tuesday..
ReplyDeleteVisiting for RT! Hope you can visit mine too..

Great composition- love the way the red is repeated in the background too.
ReplyDeleteI've only recently signed up for Hamburg's city bikes... I think it's an awesome idea.
ReplyDeleteHowever I'm not quite sure if Berlin is such a bike friendly city... I've seen quite a few drivers who didn't pay any attention to cyclists at all!
