City Bikes (Oslo Bysykkel)

The city bikes are available from a large number of bike stations around the city. You need an electronic smartcard to use the bikes.
You are only allowed to use a bike for maximum 3 hours - then you have to return it to a station (any one of them), and you can immediately loan a new bike if you wish.

Most of the stations are in the city centre, but you can also find bikes at Bislett, Grünerløkka, Gamlebyen (the old town) and at Bygdøy, and new stations are being built continuously. The bike stations are open 6 am - midnight. The bikes are not available in the winter.
For an updated list of bike stations, visit the website www.oslobysykkel.no, and you will find a map and a complete list of stations.

PERSONAL SMARTCARD:
It costs NOK 70 per year to have your own card. You have to be 18 years old and live in the Oslo area to have a City Bike smartcard registered in your name.
The old cards will be replaced in 2008, so everyone has to order cards online at www.oslobysykkel.no.
The Tourist Information Centres in Oslo no longer sell the cards.

TOURIST CARD:
Tourists and others who don't need a season card can rent a smartcard at the Tourist Information. This costs NOK 70 for one day. In addition to that, you have to have a credit card as a deposit.
