So funny for me to see how this works in France. :) In NL bikes have a few designated reserved place in trains and there's no need to take them on the metro. First off we don't have a lot of metro lines in our country and second, if you have your bike, you just use that instead of the metro or bus. Though for my commutes that used to involve a train every day, I preferred my Strida folding bike. It's free (a regular bike needs a €7 train ticket), also allowed during rush hours and easier to carry.
When I go to work it's about 8km a day. But usually more, cause I also need groceries and to visit friends, etc. :)
Anyway, what do you think of this velib system in Paris? I want to try riding a bike in Paris, but with the driving skills of the French I'm not so sure about that, haha.
