Some figures
VÃ(c)lib', whose bicycles are used an average of 50,000 to 70,000 times every day,
set
a new record on August 4 with a total of more than 97,000 rentals.

- One half of long-term subscribers (1 year) use their Navigo season ticket to
register
their subscriptions.
- For short-term subscriptions, bank cards are used at the cycle rack terminals
to
take out an average of 17,000 1-day and 7-day subscriptions every day.
The use of VÃ(c)lib' bicycles is split between 1 or 7-day rental solutions (83%)
and
annual subscriptions (17%).

After scarcely more than one month in operation, the self-hire bicycles
complete trips
every day lasting an average of 22 minutes and, together, cover more than
100,000kms (almost three times the circumference of the Earth). Since July 15,
the
VÃ(c)lib' bicycles have covered almost 4 million kilometers (100 times around the
planet).

Work on installing new cycle racks and making more bicycles available has
continued since July 15 with a view to providing 1,000 cycle racks in September

will complete the system's coverage of the city, offering a cycle rack every 300
metres (by the end of the year) for the greater satisfaction of VÃ(c)lib' users.
