Default Cycle Hire south western expansion goes live today

* An additional 2,000 bikes and more than 150 new docking stations
around Clapham Junction, Hammersmith and Putney.
* An increase to the area covered of more than 50%. The scheme now
covers over 100 sq km of central and inner London

The blurb says London has the second largest such scheme in Europe -
presumably Paris being in pole position.

Just had a horrible thought... Fockstons, er sorry, Foxtons becoming the
new sponsor of the scheme... shiver!
