Access to bicycles for short trips inside the city is great for your health, your budget and the environment. However, finding the nearest station available for picking up or returning a bike can quickly turn into a frustrating experience. For those who don’t have bcycl in their pocket, that is.

bcycl for Windows Phone finds the closest available bike or empty slot on a smoothly zoomable map, showing station clusters and individual stations, with availability information updated in real time.

The latest update (1.1) brings station search and support for more cities, including:

– Montreal (Bixi)
– Mineapolis (Nice Ride)
– Washington (Capital Bikeshare)
– Toronto (Bixi)
– London (Barclays Cycle Hire aka Boris bikes)

You can try the app for free (limited to one nearby station) or purchase the full version for 99 cents only.

Read more about the app at www.bcycl.mobi and can be found in Marketplace here.
