Copenhagen gent waiting at a red light. Read all about the specially-designed railing he is holding onto. It's how we spoil cyclists in Copenhagen.

The world needs more dapper hats.

Great bicycle in the second pic!
Hey Michael - I think you would like Project Rwanda (http://projectrwanda.org/). Development based on the bicycle. I just discovered it yesterday...
Like the Raleigh.
So what's going on here? You Danes get the beautiful classic Raleigh's, us Aussies get stuck with the crass 18 speed macho lycra versions. Not happy John!~ian,Melbourne
Agree with John you guys in Denmark get the cool bikes to choose from and we in Ireland get stipped down toys from Raleigh and then asked to pay extra to have mudguards fitted. Not happy either Andrew Dublin
I like the cool bikes but the rail thingy is amazing. It sure beats trying to do a track stand at the light. I just bought my first city bike in my too-many-years-to-mention career as a cyclist. It's great for Valencia, Spain which is as flat as a tortilla but I would die on this pig trying to hump up one of the mammoth hills of Seattle.
I'm officially sick of this site! It's just too depressing for me... living in Australia... having to read about your amazing cycle culture and all the benefits. It's. just. not. fair!
Cycling in Australia is still nearly always simply viewed as a sport. The notion of cycling as just transport disappeared from our psyche a long time ago.
Think I might just have to move to Europe after all.
Love the blog, by the way.
