Paris Vélib’

Peter Rukavina

I left L&L to adventure on my own this afternoon, heading to Bois de Vincennes by bus, and then grabbing a Vélib’ to cycle through the park. The Vélib’ system was very easy to use: I downloaded the app to my iPhone, signed up for a 1 day subscription for €3, entered my ID and PIN on the keypad of an electric bicycle, and I was off. I covered a lot of ground—almost 10 km—and it felt like I had the entire forest to myself most of the time. I love cycling so much: it feels like flying, especially when riding electric-assisted. The weather was perfect for a ride today. I’m so glad I took the time.
