The melbourne cycle scheme is a total failure based on almost every study/review I've read... but mostly from chatting shit at the pub.
Its totally attributable (based on pub analysis) to the helmet issue. You can buy them in 2 vending machines in the CBD, and at 7-11. Its a complete bit of shit.
I'd have signed up already if it wasn't for that... and the fact that the city is easily navigable by foot and the bike stations dont extend beyond the CBD.
