Who needs the book library?

The bike library is the best idea ever. All you have to do is put down a deposit (how much depends on the quality of the bike) and you get to keep a bike for 6 months before returning it to get your full deposit back. Now I can zip around Iowa City on a hot, brown ten-speed, which is way better than walking and way cheaper than driving. For instance, instead of getting sweaty and tired walking to a friend's apartment today, I was able to quickly ride over to borrow her copy of the Da Vinci Code which I have to try to read by 7:30pm tomorrow when I go see the movie (a difficult task considering I have 14 hours of work between now and then).
