If you want to use the TFL bike hire scheme, but want to ensure that the nearest docking station has a bike, and that there will be space at your target destination, there are a number of tracking apps available.
This is the nicest I've seen, since it's overlaid with a map, has a nice graphical interface and gives you a real-time update of the number of bikes at each docking station in a very clear and easy to interpret fashion.

A very Happy New Year to everyone.
I'm not sure if you have been keeping up with the news, but from today the Mayor has authorised the use of bus lanes by powered 2 wheelers (motorbikes and scooters). This is an 18 month trial which is going ahead despite a fairly vocal protests by the Cyclists Touring Club (CTC) - think the "AA" for bikes, and London Cycle Campaign(LCC).

Wow, thanks guys for a magnificent and inspiring evening and special thanks to Richard for initially organising this idea of having a social drink.
