Electric Bicing pilot test will last until the end of 2015 with 45 indoor and 5 outdoor stations. It started with 1.000 subscribers that increased in 4.000 users and, nowadays there’s a waiting list to use the service. On average it’s used 115 times per day and the average distance traveled is 2,7km regarding the 1,9km with the regular bicycle and 20 minutes regarding the 13 of the regular bicycle.
