I am sure you are all aware of the blue Boris Bikes around London!
I know the rules for the challenge state no unscheduled public transport, but if these Boris Bikes are available to the public around docking stations in London, would they be permitted to be used?
They are only in central London, so might not help that much!
Thanks

Re: Boris Bikes?
i once wrote to Guinness asking this, and although i got a less-than-straightforward answer, it boiled down to "no", you can't. because they're not a form of scheduled public transport.

Bit like a taxi then. It's public transport but not scheduled.

Re: Boris Bikes?
I agree with Geoff, but the original post said public transport wasn't allowed. That isn't the case - buses, trains, dlr and trams are allowed - as they're scheduled.

Sorry I should have said no unscheduled public transport.
