Casual Cool Cargo Cyclists

They are on the same line. They both have a red light, but we know that in Copenhagen cyclists get green light few seconds earlier. Yes, in Copenhagen guys with cargo bikes rules!

It is true. You just get so happy while cycling in Copenhagen!

It is basically your second home.

As easy as it can be... Going to pick up kids or just cruising... CARGO BIKE!

Happy Cargo Cycling!

Double Dealing Days, Part II

No matter where you are going to and what you are doing. The streets of Copenhagen with cycling lines wide enough to fit two cyclists cycling together side by side gives you a possibility to share these beautiful everyday moments with your friends.

It is pretty ordinary in Copenhagen to see couples cycling from A-to-B. It is cheaper, faster, better and lets be honest - later you can use the money for a nice, romantic dinner together.

It starts with couples and continues with families...

Take your friend and share the ride !!! 

Happy Cycling!

Dare Yourself, it is Black Friday!

Urban cycling is all about experience, getting from A to B with smile, positive vibes. Connecting with people cycling right next to you, connecting with your city... On Fridays you can let yourself a little bit loose, a little bit more fun, a little bit more relax... as these two above. 

Enjoy the Black Friday and Happy Cycling!

The Simple Things in Life

"Nothing compares to the simple pleasure of a bike ride" / John F. Kennedy

And it is true. Either you are going to work, school, party or some other destination, bike is the best choice for the transportation. It will give a little work out feeling to your body, it will make you smile, it will lead you in meeting new people while waiting for the green light, it will let you feel your city and more... Put that sunnies on and get on a road!!!

Happy Cycling!

CPH Classico – Bicyles & Vintage clothes in the streets of Copenhagen

Last Sunday, CPH Made and Recycles (a bike shop which restores iconic old bike frames) organized for the first time the Copenhagen Classico - a bike race... or let's say a fast pace bike parade. Indeed, the point of the Copenhagen Classico was to pay a tribute to the stylish cyclists from the good old days.



The dress code: Retro looks for these ladies...





... vintage race outfit for this man....

.... and stylish urban outfits for them.



For the occasion, policemen took out their outfits and motorcycles of yesteryear. Each detail counted for this event taking place for the first time in the Danish capital.

A Ride in Style in Copenhagen

Not long ago we were on a little Ride in Style here in Copenhagen. Normally, bike rides are something that are associated with Emerging Bicycle Cultures. For Copenhageners it's usually just A2B on our trusty iron horses.

We've been on many a bike ride around the world in our Cycle Chic and Copenhagenize work but this one was a little different. It was very Copenhagen. The cool bike design shop Biker's Remix organised a cool little tour one Saturday. On bikes, of course, 'cause that's the way we all roll here, but with focus on design, food and drink. A pleasant afternoon with fellow Copenhageners cruising our beloved Copenhagen.



First stop was the Biker's Remix showroom to check out cool designed bicycles and to sample the first sip of the day (above left).



Onward we rolled. To visit design studio MAIK in the Vesterbro neighbourhood.

MAIK dished up some beers and we were invited to participate in a design process brainstorm.


Back to the streets we climbed.


It was time for ice cream.


We stopped at Oswald's Ice Cream Bar.


And off we went. To the Nørrebro neighbourhood. With beverages, of course. This is Denmark, not Afghanistan.


Next stop was Urban Room No. 11. The groovy little design shop in Nørrebro. They dished up coffee and cake for us.



We were never in a hurry. When it was time to leave, it just felt right.


We visited the workshop of the coolest bicycle designer in the Kingdom. Cykelmageren (The Bike Maker), for more snacks and refreshments and a look at Rasmus' brilliant crafted bikes and bits of bikes.


Then we returned to Vesterbro, to visit the Vess art gallery. It was now cocktail time.




We wrapped up the afternoon back where we started, at Kødbyens Deli in the Meatpacking District, for chili con carne and beers.

Some of our lovely friends took their leave of us, as above, and others headed out for the evening at a bar in the centre of the city.

Thanks to Biker's Remix for a brilliant day out with friends, design, sweet and savoury food, refreshing beverages and a super concept.

We'll roll with you anytime.
