Bike + Train = A Smarter Commute — New Station at Lagedi, Estonia
The gap between cycling and public transit just got a little smaller.
A new Bikeep smart bike parking station is now live at Lagedi railway station in Estonia, making it easier than ever for commuters to combine cycling with train travel. The concept is simple: ride your bike to the station, lock it securely, and continue your journey by rail — stress-free.
This is intermodal mobility in action — and it works best when infrastructure is designed to support it. Here's what commuters gain:
- No city parking stress — skip the traffic and the hunt for a parking spot
- Faster, more predictable commutes — combine the flexibility of a bike with the speed of rail
- Lower transport costs — save on fuel, parking fees, and vehicle maintenance
- A healthier start and end to your day — build physical activity into your routine naturally
- A smaller environmental footprint — every bike-to-train trip is one less car on the road
Intermodal solutions like this represent a growing trend across Europe. Cities and transport authorities are increasingly recognizing that secure bike parking at transit hubs is one of the most cost-effective ways to extend the reach of public transport networks — encouraging more people to leave their cars at home.
When cycling infrastructure meets public transit, daily routines become noticeably easier. The Lagedi station is a perfect example of how smart, connected infrastructure can shape better commuting habits.

Rolling Out Something New in Serbia — Internal Rental Station Goes Live
Not every bike-sharing solution needs to be public. Sometimes, the smartest approach is to keep it internal.
We've just launched a Bikeep Internal Rental Station for A-A Rental in Serbia — bringing a fresh approach to internal mobility using our proven smart dock hardware. This solution is designed for organizations that want the benefits of bike sharing without the complexity of a public system.
What makes Internal Rental different:
- Your bikes, your station, your rules — complete control over your fleet and access
- Easy A-to-A bike sharing — users pick up and return bikes at the same station
- Same trusted smart dock hardware — reliable, proven technology you can count on
- Simple access control — no GPS tracking or complex public infrastructure required
- Start small, scale across buildings — begin with one station, expand as demand grows
Whether it's for employees moving between office buildings, students crossing a university campus, or residents in a private development — the Internal Rental Station gets more bikes in motion without adding operational complexity.
Big kudos to Marko Arambasic for making this happen 👏 Great to see local partners driving smart mobility forward in the Balkans. We're curious to see how internal bike sharing evolves from here — and we're ready to support it.
