Alternative Transportation

A very interesting and creative idea for addressing transportation issues, Call-a-bike. If you are walking around and you see a Call-a-Bike Bike, you can call up on your cell phone and activate the bike, allowing you to rent it for 4 cents a minute. Ride the bike to where you want and then leave it for the next person.

Here’s the english explanation from the German company’s site:

I found this from Miquel Cruz’s site of travel photography. Here’s his photo:
