Nice as in Nice, South of France. We’re not long back from a holiday in Nice and I’d thought I’d mention the Velo Bleu bikes again.
I saw quite a few of these hire cycles being ridden around, by tourists or Nice locals I’m not quite sure. The bikes still look in good, clean condition and I didn’t see any trashed ones anywhere. One thought I have …who pumps up the tyres? This must be a maintenance issue for any cycle hire scheme, including the new London hire scheme of course. If you know how they keep tyre pressures up do leave a comment.
The Velo Bleu bikes have a handlebar mounted pannier which is evidently used by some locals as a means of transporting a small dog around town! Or in one case, it can be used to transport a teenage girl around the streets of Nice!
