Bicing amunt, bicing avall

Ahir vaig provar per primer cop el Bicing. Ja feia uns dies que en tenia ganes i la veritat és que em va agradar l’experiència. Em va agradar tant que avui al matí hi he tornat. La ruta que he provat és del Poblenou a Provença-Roger de Llúria i de Còrsega-Rambla Catalunya. Tota l’estona he pogut anar pel carril bici i no he tingut cap mena de sensació de perill excepte potser en alguna de les travesseres del carrer Nàpols, on tenia els cotxes més a prop.

Trobo que el servei és una gran idea i em sembla molt innovador el concepte de “complement” del transport públic. Tot i així trobo que de la manera que s’ha plantejat, li caldria una mica de visió d’usuari. M’explico:

  1. Trobar les estacions Bicing no és fàcil: Per fer aquests viatges m’he hagut de planificar utilitzant la web de bicing, el mapa de paper que em van enviar i la web del TMB. Aquest matí he tardat una estona a trobar la parada de Córsega tot i que hi havia passat a escassos metres. Solució: I si hi haguessin cartells als carrils bicis senyalant de tant en tant la proximitat d’una parada Bicing? Una mica com les rutes a peu que hi ha senyalitzades a la muntanya, on et diu el temps, la distància, les fonts d’aigua…
  1. Orientar-se no és fàcil: Tinc més o menys el mapa de Barcelona al cap però no sóc un GPS. Tampoc em sé de memòria on hi ha carril bici ni, un cop dalt de la bici, puc mirar el mapa per saber on són les parades ni la resta de transports públics. Solució: La xarxa Bicing s’hauria de poder consultar dins de la web de bcn.es a l’apartat “Vull anar” (al qual per cert sempre he pensat que li falta un pronom: vull anar-hi! O una preposició: vull anar a…) a més dels cartellets que ja he mencionat abans
  1. Les parades estan molt concentrades: entenc que en calguin 4 a plaça catalunya però potser diagonal amunt n’hi podrien haver més. Sé que n’hi ha de projectades, però ara per ara em semblen insuficients. Solució: Procurar que totes les zones de Barcelona tinguin almenys una via d’accés a la xarxa de carrils bici i parades Bicing. No caldria fer molts carrils per Sarrià per exemple, però almenys un que et portés fins la Diagonal des d’allà (per Via Augusta??).
  1. REALMENT és un complement del transport públic?: No trobo que estiguin molt coordinades les parades. Solució: Fer-lo coherent de veritat amb la xarxa actual de transports. I no només amb les parades amb més trànsit (com Provença), podrien equilibrar-ho més amb parades que ara queden més despenjades. I les parades podrien tenir el nom de la parada de Metro o Bus més pròxima!

Estic intrigada en veure com evoluciona el tema, sobretot ara que els lloguers de bicicleta els han denunciat (no trobo la notícia online però ho he sentit a Catalunya Ràdio avui) per donar "lleure subvencionat" (quin escàndol!)

I vosaltres? Ho heu provat? Què en penseu?

(aprofito per recordar que els comentaris són benvinguts!)

ostres virginia... un gran anàlisi del bicing, però vols dir que estar enfocat a ser un servei complementari del transport públic? Jo ho veig més com una cosa turística.

hola!

Està plantejat com un transport públic i no recreatiu. De fet, jo l'he fet servir només amb aquest plantejament.

A la web del bicing hi diu:

"El Bicing no és un sistema públic de lloguer de bicicletes per a ús turístic o recreatiu. El bicing és un nou mitjà de transport públic i un complement ideal al transport tradicional de la ciutat de Barcelona. La seva finalitat és cobrir els petits trajectes diaris que es fan per dins de la ciutat."

ho heu provat vosaltres??

A vegades hi ha bicis amb les que et pots descalabrar facilment.
Moltes vegades no funciona l'aparell i hi ha cues de gent esperant.
Jo tampoc ho faig servir en plan ociós i la veritat es que si et falla un al matí l'has cagat Viriat.
I atenció una cosa:Si penjeu al sarró al davant correu el perill d'enganxar la bici a la post amb la nansa a dintre.De manera que haureu d'estar-vos allà carnet amunt i carnet avall aviam si torneu a treure la remaleïda bicicleta.
el dia que em va passar això vaig perdre el tren.
m'agrada molt el vostre blog.
m'agradaria que actualitzessiu més sovint.
El llibre d'en nacho vegas es diu "política de echos consumados".

Everything about horse betting

So what is wrong with horse racing? Well, for lack of a better answer... horse racing. By that we mean the tradition mired establishment of horse racing where "because we've always done it that way" seems to be the golden rule.
[url=http://www.pulsebet.com]bet horse racing[/url]
Another sad fact is that more than 400 in-racing horses die every year in the UK alone. They may die on the course itself, from injuries received in training or be killed by their owners - considered no longer commercially viable.


Perhaps the most important factor is the distance of these races, the Derby is a mile and a quarter (10 furlongs), the Preakness, a mile and three sixteenths (9.5 furlongs) and the Belmont at a mile and a half (12 furlongs) is the longest of the three. The horses that survive their attempt at the Triple Crown will seldom, if ever, compete at these distances again. And yes, survival is a consideration. Many Triple Crown hopefuls are never able to compete again after the Belmont, even potential superstars such as Smarty Jones in 2004.

Brother Derek with Alex Solis up finished in a dead heat for fourth in the Derby, 9 1/2 lengths back after being steadied twice. With a career record of 6 wins out of 9 starts (3 out of 4 this year) Brother Derek had 4 straight wins before the Derby.
