Springtime in Paris: Bike the City Streets with Signature Le Meurice Bikes

When Paris launched its self-service bicycle lending program called Vélib’, the bike-share program was praised (and copied) around the world. Copy-cat locations worldwide include Washington D.C. Parisians and tourists alike use the sturdy bikes for jaunts throughout the town. It's hard to find a better way of exploring Paris than traveling by two wheels-- viewing each quartier's winding streets, architecture and distinct charm. Le Meurice-- the legendary palace hotel that's the "most Versaillaise of Parisian places"-- decided to give its guests a piece of the action last year by offering pistachio-green bicycles with red satchels and elegant gold bike locks. Even the helmet matches the signature color! The concierge is happy to arrange a bike for your use, so you can get out and take a ride along the Seine.
