If you want to get around quickly and efficiently in Swiss cities like Lausanne, Vevey, Yverdon or Fribourg, then the hassle of looking for somewhere to park or wearing out the soles of your shoes could soon be a thing of the past. An innovative LEGIC based bike sharing system is taking over Switzerland.

It's no secret that if you're taking short trips in the inner city, the fastest, cheapest and most ecological way to travel is by bike. The Swiss company velopass GmbH has recognised this trend, and is working constantly to set up a national network of bike sharing stations. Based on self-service, this allows users to borrow bikes in a variety of Swiss towns and hand them back at any velopass destination station they choose, using just one card.
