## What is My Boris Bikes?

Provides a quick and easy way to view / save your favourite Santander Cycles (a.k.a. "Boris Bike") docks, showing at-a-glance info on:
 - Number of bikes (normal and e-bikes)
 - Number of spaces

Advantages over the existing Santander Cycles app:
 - Generally far quicker in normal use
 - Allows you to focus on the docks you use regularly
 - Includes home screen widgets
 - Includes companion watch app, with widgets (complications)
 - No need to login/register

Note: This app is not affiliated with TfL or Santander, but uses the same underlying TfL data feed. To hire a bike, please use the official Santander Cycles app or the dock terminal.
