Had my first ride on an Ofo bike today after they launched in Camberwell. Once I had navigated the app and committed my 50 pence I realized someone had already skidded out the back wheel to leave a flat spot (they have solid tyres) and a bumpy ride. I’m not sure London is ready for this level of collective responsibility yet. Seems like a good idea once it settles down and people get bored of vandalising them.
One thing: it's not very inclusive; you need an account, an app, a data plan, a bank card with credit on it, etc.
