It takes a lot more than snow, sub-zero temperatures and a wind approaching storm strength to stop Copenhageners from having a chat with friends or loved ones on their bicycles.
So is there a general acceptance of people coming to work with sopping wet clothes in Copenhagen? I bike year round in my work/street clothes, but if it is raining or otherwise very wet, I wear a waterproof winter jacket and rain pants so my suit does not get wet.
Your photographs are lovely. Please feel free to take a look at my blog http://gennacamptonillustration.blogspot.com/ where I have posted an illustration inspired by Copenhagen Cycle Chic. Thanks
Just found your blog and I've to say it's great, but one question: can you tell my, why there isn't anyone with a helmet on your photos? Even in the coldest weather on ice-streets no one wears a helmet? Nobody ever vitnessed a broken head? Helmet & cycle-chic is the challenge.Anyway, keep rolling! With regards from the now not so very cold germany, whitey.
This looks like where my sister lives in Holland! : ) Oye, be careful!
