Not knowing where to park a bike when commuting, being afraid of having a bike stolen or having to walk home at the end of a working day when a bike breaks mid-ride, are all problems that our team have experienced in the past, and want to avoid experiencing in the future and so smartcycle was born. An app from cyclists, addressing cyclists everyday issues.
Since we have won the The DigitalTown #LondonNeeds Hackathon for Smart.London last June, and after some deserved holidays, smartcycle is now finally launching and app that will allow cyclists from all over the world to enjoy some cool features...
