The Cycle Hire Widget

by Little Fluffy Toys

The Cycle Hire Widget is available to download for free from Android Market. It works by displaying the 3 nearest cycle hire places to you and how far away from them you are. The Cycle Hire Widget also confirms if cycles are available at these three locations. There is also a flag status system to confirm other criteria such as closed, no cycle spaces available and cycles low.
In this podcast, Reuben Harris talks more on the Cycle Hire Widget.
