Does anyone have experince in running and administering a bike scheme? I have been asked to introduce the availability of some bikes for staff to utilise when travelling between offices - in central London. There are a number of considerations that spring to mind, not least of all the H&S/legal aspect - can anyone help?

Mark, I have - I wouldn't supply the bikes. They have to be adjusted to suit each individual and you have no control over their use or abuse! Consider too the maintenance costs. In the past I have given vouchers to the value of, say, £150 to the cost of a bike for those wishing to bike it. I also made sure that we had sufficient changing, showering and drying areas along with larger personal lockers and sheltered bike storage areas. I seem to recall 8-10 bikes per standard car park spot.

This is a great idea - your company should be applauded for taking the initiative.
