| In London, there has always been a main problem. In order to solve this problem, the government has decided to have a bike revolution (革命). It has decided to provide 6,000 bikes for the people to rent. The government encourages local people to ride bikes in order to solve the traffic problem. More than 12,000 people have agreed to the idea. Some of them ask for more than one key. Although there are not enough bikes, an official (官员) from the government said that they would find some ways to deal with such a shortage. Local people can get these bikes at special docking stations (停靠站). There are about 315 docking stations across the city.
