If you have ever been to Oxford, you will have noticed that the people here are avid fans of the bicycle. The three main reasons why cycling is so popular is because it's a relatively small city and pretty flat, too. Secondly, the Oxford community is pretty green minded on the whole. Furthermore, thanks to the economic crisis and rising fuel prices, more and more people are realising that cycling makes sense.
One of the problems with having a bike in Oxford, though, is that your bike is never safe, especially in the centre of town. If you haven't had your bike stolen in Oxford, you're either very lucky or you haven't lived here for very long. One solution to this would be to bring in the Boris Bike. For those who don't know what these are, please click on the image below.

I think we could also thank Wiggo!

I do hope the Boris bike will be making an appearance in Oxford soon...
