Marching into More Rain and Wind

The weather is letting us down here in Copenhagen. Spring is as late as an Italian train. It's usually hard to remember the weather in previous years but fortunately we have the Cycle Chic Archive to help us determine if this crappy weather is normal or if we're being robbed blind of sunlight and warmth. Above and below, photos from on or about this day in March, 2007.

THIS DAY IN 2010

On this date last year I was speaking in Mexico City and doing Cycle Chic events in the city like a photo shoot, and a Cycle Chic Critically Stylish Ride. Which, after perusing these archive photos of what the weather is like in early March in Copenhagen, is really where I should be. Viva Mexico DF.

January 2007

Once in awhile it's interesting to look back and see what we were up to on a certain date in Cycle Chic history. We're easily amused that way.

This Day in Cycle Chic History

Oh lazy day. Still trying to come to terms with Life After Summer Holidays. So here's a This Day in Cycle Chic History post. What bicycle related photos did I take on this day in previous years?

11 August 2007

The calendar function on Flickr is quite cool. You can see what photos you took on any day since you started on the website.

Double up near the old Stock Exchange.

11 August 2008

I was productive on this day in 2008, apparently. The iconic blue bike lanes of Copenhagen, as seen from above.

One of the two Weather Girls high atop the Richs Building overlooking Hans Christian Andersen's Boulevard and the City Hall Square. They acted as a weather barometer from the mid 1930's until 1995, when the machine broke. If rain was forecast the woman with an umbrella and a dog would rotate out to hover over the city. If the weather was fair, the Cycling Girl rotated out. Here's an earlier post about them.

Some chopper action.


Boulevard Moments.

Aerial chaps.

Morning transport.

This Day in Cycle Chic History

It was a lovely day today. Very springlike. Brilliant. So I wondered what photos I took on or about this same date in previous years for this blog. Here are two shots from 2009.


And here's a couple of shots from 2008.




And here's one from 2007.
