You're right, central parts of both our cities probably quite touristy.
But tourists mostly walk/public transport, no? Can't be as bad as normal Friday afternoon.
Think your time frame is fine. And you won't need 30 minutes to get the hang of the bike. They are more stable with weight, and the one you got with the handlebar all the way is cool. You can make (very slow) really small turns when you move your hands around, putting your hand on the „wrong" side of the bar. The babboes with normal handlebars suck, as you can't do that.
c.h.e.-
30 mins is how long the store said it would take - documents, child seat setup, quick demo and all that.
Interesting, I think I get what you're saying, but will have to give it a try. And yeah I'm going to have to try and balance the weight with the kids, I'm sure it'll be plenty heavy and stable on that front.
Maybe, I'm commuting through the city all kinds of times and days, and Saturday's aren't particularly wonderful. A lot of the board squares are in tourist hotspots too, naturally.

Yeah it's Summer Holidays and meant to be a sunny day, so that might make things busy.
Since it's a Saturday, hire is from 11am-5pm only - not including time spent in induction (another 30 mins?). I need to be back in East by around 16:30 though, with lunch in-between and all.
Was thinking of stopping for food at New/Old Kent Road, as one of my favourite Lebanese places is there, and wraps are easy for the kids to eat on the go. Then back to Whitechapel to hit Commercial St and up City Road to reach and tick off all the light blue tiles, and then return the bike.
I'm now thinking I need to account for toilet breaks and stacking the bike around kerbs and corners lol.
