This is a list of bicycle-sharing systems. By August 2014, more than 600 cities worldwide had a bike-sharing programme,〔(Keeping Bike Shares Running Smoothly Requires Seriously Complex Math ), Gizmodo, 27 August 2014〕 up from 535 systems, in 49 countries, in April 2013 (this included 132 in Spain, 104 in Italy, and 79 in China, for a total fleet of 517,000 bicycles). This is a sharp increase from 2011, when 375 schemes operated 236,000 bikes. In particular, adoption outside Europe increased over that period, up from one system (in Washington D.C.) to around 143, with more than 50 percent of the world fleet in the Asia Pacific region (substantially, China).〔Midgley, P. (2011). (Bicycle Sharing Schemes. Enhancing Sustainable Mobility in Urban Areas ). United Nations〕〔(Bike-Sharing Programs Hit the Streets in Over 500 Cities Worldwide ); Earth Policy Institute; Larsen, Janet; 25 April 2013〕 In 2008, there were 213 schemes operating in 14 countries using 73,500 bicycles. ==Europe== The advertising company JCDecaux has launched its "Cyclocity" programs initially in Lyon, France, and subsequently in Paris and many other cities such as Brisbane, Córdoba, Vienna and Kazan. Payment for using the bikes is done with special smart cards. With financial aid from Barclays, Transport for London has launched a Cycle Hire scheme in London, where hire under 30 minutes is free from special bicycle stands across the city, after a daily, monthly or annual charge has been paid.〔(What you pay | Cycling | Transport for London ).

A different financial model called bicing is used in Barcelona, which is paid for by car owners parking on public streets and not by advertising – which rather ironically is contracted to JCDecaux in some places.〔(Adshel )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of bicycle-sharing systems」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
