Not only is this the most helpful list of shit concerning bikes in paris ever, but this just might be the best tour-guide blog ever. Wanna know about the 5 best brews of coffee in paris period? The best couscous? The best crèpes? The Best dive bars? Well, they claim to know. I think i've got some--ahem--research to do...

Paris' highly successful Véllib program is almost definitely coming to Chicago. Apparently the city gov't is working out offers from JCDecaux and Clearchannel. While I would rarely, if ever have to use it, the benefits to cycling in Chicago would be enormous if the program were successful (more bike lanes, more drivers accustomed to and aware of cyclists, less traffic and pollution, and so on).
Quoted: Launched in July, Paris' "Velib" bikes were part of the mayor's idea of making the city more ecologically friendly and reducing traffic. Just two months on, the bikes seem to be changing the way people get around the city.

Okay, my last fave is indeed a helpful little tool, but this, damn. If yr ever in Paris and need a bike shop, this is just about all you need. However, some shops specialize in vélos de ville or vélos électronique--in which case you might be SOL if you need a tube in a pinch. But still...fucking awesome...
