Bike tree - wold you use it?

My idea was a little less techie than the bike tree. It could be much simpler. Electronic swipe cards or key pad passwords (mabe both incase you lost your card). Once inside there would be traditional bike stands to which you lock your bike to. Cost wise, if it was funded for ground rent, elec, CCTV (yurgh) etc. there could be a pay as you go system. With a dedicated web site one could simply register themselves and their bike(s) before being able to get a card. ??? Ride safe all !!!

There's plenty of examples of this sort of thing around, spinny. If you want to find inspiration for your design, go to Finsbury Park station for a TfL-funded one, or to Walthamstow Central, Leytonstone, or Leyton Tube stations. Who knows, they might well be improved? A good contact for the ones in Waltham Forest is Gina Harkell at the Council, as she led on building them.
