Did anyone else note......

The "deposit" is a black bicycle with silver front basket and rear rack, but he retrieves a completely differently shape white bike with no rear rack!

I didn't notice that a swap had occured but I did take a sort of second look at the bike at the size. Now it makes sense.

Perhaps that is the idea.. a sort of lucky dip... you put in one bike and then you get the chance to get a better or worse bike back!!!

I seem to recall having seen something similar in a ctc email, I think it might of been Spain ? The idea looks good but I couldn't see them lasting long here.

it's a different man surely, they're illustrating the idea that you get out the bike you put in

no trikes either :S

I thought you could just leave them by the side of the road. What self-respecting scrote's gonna want to be seen riding off on someone's trike?

Wrong, if it's a trike like Silk:

Wouldn't you think the machine should turn the bike around so that if you wheel it in front first, it should come out front first?
