How to use TFL London Cycle Hire - Santander Cycles
The London Cycle Hire scheme is a great and affordable way to get around London. Joolz shows you how to use them in this video and gives some helpful tips on what not to do.
Most Londoners call them Boris Bikes after Boris Johnson who was the mayor of London when the scheme was initiated and they have sponsors who change periodically. At time of filming it was called the Santander Cycle Hire scheme or Santander Cycles.
If you do it right you only have to pay two pounds to hire it for 24 hours but you must only use it in 30 minute stages unless you want to be charged more money. Each 30 minutes is free but if you don't dock it you get charged another £2 per 30 minutes. If you like these guides do please subscribe to the youtube channel and sign up for more at the website!

Barclays Cycle Hire / How it works
Getting started is easy.
Simply hire a bike, ride it where you like, then return it to any docking station
Step 1 - Hire
Go to the nearest docking station terminal with your debit or credit card and touch the screen to begin
Select 'Hire a cycle', follow the on-screen instructions and take the printed release code
You can hire up to four bikes at the same time (remember - you need a separate release code for each bike)
Tip: Barclays Cycle Hire is for short trips, so all journeys under 30 minutes are free from ride charges!
Tip: Each bike release code is valid for 10 minutes and only at that docking station. Bikes are valuable so don't let anyone see your code before you use it.
Step 2 - Ride
Take a moment to read our tips for safer cycling at the terminal
Choose your bike and check the tyres, brakes and bell
Type your five-digit release code into the docking point's silent keypad and pull the bike out when the green light appears
Adjust the saddle height and you're good to go!
Tip: The bikes have lights that come on automatically when you start pedalling
Step 3 - Return
Push the bike firmly into any empty docking point
You must wait for the green light, which will show that the bike is securely docked (otherwise we will continue to charge you for your journey)
If the docking station is full, select 'No docking point free' at the terminal and follow the on-screen directions to get an extra 15 minutes free.
To find a nearby space if the docking station is full, select 'Status of nearest docking station' at the terminal
Remember, if you're not using the bike, dock it back!
Tip: If the bike is unsafe to ride, please let us know it needs repairing by pressing the 'Fault' button on the docking point within 10 seconds of docking it.
Tip: You will need to wait five minutes before hiring another bike.
