The scheme is operated by nextbike and sponsored by Santander UK. The scheme launched on 17 June 2016.[1] HistoryAfter the success of bicycle hire schemes in Belfast, Bath and Glasgow, nextbike announced plans [2] to partner with Santander UK on a new bicycle hire scheme in Milton Keynes, to be known as Santander Cycles MK. The scheme was a collaboration between Santander UK, Milton Keynes Council (MKC) and Milton Keynes City Centre Management.[3] The scheme launched on 17 June 2016 with 300 bikes across 42 docking stations[4] in Milton Keynes. Santander UK ambassador Jenson Button is the face of the bicycle hire scheme. nextbike is a German company that develops and operates public bike sharing systems with a number of successful bike sharing schemes.[5]The cycle scheme is not to be confused with Santander Cycles which is run by Transport for London and only caters to the London Area.
