Japanese Bicycle Parking ( Eco Cycle )

Assalamualaikum wbt , konichiwa !! I Heard about these underground bicycle parking cylinders but never seen on in action until yesterday -i  was impressed. A very "cute" girl (ooppsss never thought that ) heheh . came along to park with her bicycles and let me take some pics - love those knee-down garnments. wooppsss XD . so i was so so impressed with this technologies parking in japan . who create this underground parking . that was so advanced !!

These 'Gates' is where bicycles are parked and retrieved.

so you guys can see that cute girls park that bicycles . ok . At each gate there is a "simple card" reader. One has to take out a monthly contract to use these ones but there are some around Tokyo where anybody can park their bicycle.The young lady swipes her card and a few seconds later the doors open. She docks the front wheel of her bicycle. and it gets pulled in to the dock. Doors close swiftly after. you guys can check it out the picture below .

The girls park that bicycles to the eco cycles

So they also have some rules for it . did you know ..  the rate of japanese bicycle thief more than a car . yess that was the facts in japan use bicycle . it was like "bicycles" are more important vehicles in japan .

The Eco Cycle caters for bicycles which are less than 1,950mm in length and less than 1,250mm in height. Tyre size has to be less than 28 inches. Interesting how the Japanese use a mixture of mm, cm and inches. 

A few rules of what needs to be removed before using the park.

so i have a video of the bicycle park in action - but the young lady had gone by then so you will have to make do with two kind men instead. hhehe enjoy ~~
