With a bicycle on Berlin's public transport system

Berlin is criss-crossed with public transport. No private car is needed here. If one wishes to take their bike on the BVG, one has to pay an extra fee. With a valid ticket one has access to all public transport in Berlin: S-Bahn, U-Bahn, buses, trams and ferries. On the S-Bahn, U-Bahn and tram, bicycles can be carried in, especially when there is a bike symbol on the carriage.

Many of the underground/ U-Bahn stations have a lot of stairs and tunnels and either no lift or are not easily accessible. Maybe one day they could get bike lifts to assist people with heavy bikes doing their daily travelling.

Cartoon - Cycle to Work or Take the Bus?

Stuart McMillen draws informative cartoons and lives in Brisbane. He did a nice 'Bicycle vs Bus to Work' cartoon. Amongst many others, The Urban Heat Island and Energy Efficiency are also worth looking at.
