Here's one for the data-visualisation geeks: London Cycle Hire usage, graphed

I'm a bit surprised that King's Cross is the most popular; it's a huge railway terminus, but Euston Road is just a horrific place to cycle. Nice to see the tourists enjoying Hyde Park on bikes, Ken Livingstone would be happy with how his plan has come out :)

    What I found really irritating is that almost the whole of South London isn't covered: if it's not on the map then probably doesn't exist.

    South London is a place where you should have moved a few years ago: now, I'm afraid, you are out...

    Shameful commercial plug, you even linked the wrong map.
