Copenhagen Chic New Years

It was 18:17 on New Year's Eve in Copenhagen.
Temperature: 1 degree.
The streets and bike lanes were busy with people heading to parties and get togethers.

An expectant mood. So expectant that one doesn't give riding in a skirt and heels in that temperature a second thought.

Happy New Year from Copenhagen Cycle Chic!

1 degree Celsius? Thats a friggin heat wave! Perfect weather for riding in a skirt and tights. Its currently -20C here in Minneapolis.

good luck, mostly reverend...

and raquel... i can see what you mean, although it is a just a lucky reflection. what looks like the spanish flag is just her back light lit up by the car's headlights. :-)
