How They Ride Bikes in Denmark
Copenhagen, Denmark's new bikeshare system's futuristic look isn't just for style. Other cities, notably Paris, France, have public bikeshare systems, but despite being well-used resources, many of the bikes have been stolen or damaged (see
this article from last October which details many of the problems that have plagued the Paris bikeshare). Copenhagen is trying to combat these problems using futuristic-looking technology, which makes bikes harder to steal, sometimes by creatively putting them out of easy reach and tracks each bike via GPS and Wi-Fi. Click the picture above to see and read more about the plan.
