Bicycles and Motorcycles
Both bicycles and motorcycles avoid the Congestion Charge (as well as traffic and parking charges), so they are sensible modes of transport in London. Mayor Ken Livingstone is trying to make London bicycle-friendly and there are many new cycle paths and cycle routes throughout the city.
The 'London Bicycle Tour Company' hires out bicycles by the hour, the day or the week.
