My bank is Regions and you would think they would be into it with their green bike campaign. I didn't see anything on the site, but I'm going to ask!

It seems like it would make sense if someone wanted a higher end bike. I would think that would make it more worth the banks while, although my bank has gotten into the payday loan business, though they don't call it that, so maybe any interest is worth their while.

I haven't heard of loans for bicycles before and find it an interesting idea. Are there any banks locally that offer this sort of service? What do you think of the idea?

The author of "For the Love of Cities" has delivered several TEDTalks. I thought you might enjoy taking a look at one:
