Determined to prove its not a just a smog-addled city notorious for traffic and pollution, Mexico City had jumped on the bike-sharing bandwagon and launched its own free program called Mejor En Bici (Spanish link), or Better On Bicycle in English.
I really like the jewel-toned wheels of the Mejor en Bici white cruisers (I bet they would really suck in a cross-wind though), they definitely look better than the bikes being used here in the US. The bikes are available at three sites in the Condesa and Roma neighborhoods, the city's hipster and eco-friendly stomping grounds.
To use the bikes, users must register, sign a form, and leave a piece of identification and a deposit of 200 pesos (about $20), which is returned when the bike is dropped off at the same station. The bikes are available from Tuesday to Sunday 10 am to 6 pm.
