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.

I live in Belgium and for our test of English we had to watch this video!
Excellent video – Santander & TfL should've paid you to make it!
Thanks! FOR guide us.

What a stupid system, just charge people for what they use, is everything in Britain run in such an illogical way
I love riding bicycles, I needed this video. cheers !
So i you're meant to put your card again to use it even though you've docked it in 30 mins?
I didn't know those were fucking buttons
overly complicated imo. You can hire it for 24hrs but have to bring it back every 30 mins? What's the point? Just make it £2 for 1hr & you have to dock it after the hour
Surely there's a way to just do a contactless payment & that's it? Like what we do to get on buses or the tube.
i work for tfl and the amount of calls i get about people being charged because they didnt read the terms..is crazy
DO NOT USE THESE BIKES is my advice. You are at risk of having to pay hundreds of pounds if the bike gets in the wrong hands.
Prices chanded in 2022.
Can I use a US bank card renting a bike?
It's now £1.65 for ONE single 30 min ride, after that 1.65 for every other half an hour, not happy about that Santander.
2 pounds for 24 hour access and free every first 30' was much better and more fair for London people.
Why take the bike when you can take the bus for less per day?
Unfortunately, It is not available to get this 24 hour access for 2 pound 💷. It cannot be chosen on the terminal. :/ 🙁
so you can take 2 bikes or more at once?
How much it costs to rent Santandard Bicycle for 1 month?
Fast forward to 2024 you now have 2 options.
1. £1.65 flat rate for every half hour
2. £3 all day, but there is a catch.
First 30 are minutes free. Park for 10 minutes.
Then 30 minutes free again. Park for 19 minutes again. And so on.
Walk ya lazy cunts! Giving g out bikes to drug dealers. Dickheads
