Those Lime bikes are terrific. Great for access to places that don't have Santander bikes.

Great for the fraction of a percent of Londoners who use them, terrible for every one else

Not without problems, but still miles better than toting your car through a city centre.

I just walk past them when I'm not using them. Very easy. Hardly a problem.

Perhaps because you don't have a disability or a stroller with a young child so that you can comfortably and effortlessly avoid them...

[ehnto]

If sidewalks could be wider it wouldn't be as much of a concern. Narrow sidewalks are to accommodate car parking more often than not. I would rather see less of that in a city centre.

The overcompensation is palpable

[ehnto]

It's not clear what you are implying. Could you elaborate?

Had a motorcycle accident. Completely pulverized. ICU for a week. Got out and was driven everywhere for a while, but when I walked these were not a substantial burden.

They’re fine with a stroller mostly. From personal experience around Hackney, Islington and Haringey.
