Pushing the Flood Gates
True fact: Copenhagen skies mostly hold their rainy breath back during the morning and afternoon rush hours. However, I'm not sure all Copenhagen Cyclists would agree with the stats. And with all the rain we get you can - and will - be caught out from time to time. Above: Soaked to the skin. Below: Prepared for the worst.
Ready to hold her ground come what may.
Relax - its only water!
Trying to zip back before its too late.

Cycling to the Stars
In 2014 Danes broke two decades of cycling stats to reach 3.5 Billion Kilometers. That's easily enough to reach Uranus. Or ride 15 times to Mars. Or go over 8.000 times to the Moon. Its also almost 10% more than Danes biked last year.
Copenhagen is solidly in the lead after cycles have overtaken both cars and public transport as the preferred method of Copenhagen commuting. Over the last 25 years the number of Danes cycling into Copenhagen has doubled.
Dedicated Cycle infrastructure plays a big role in this. Some of the new Super Cycle Highways have been a huge success attracting over 50% more commuters every day.
Weather also makes a difference. 2014 was kind to Danish cyclists. Still the jump is noticible.
Happy Cycling!

Inspired by Queen's legendary bicycle song I matched up a few of Copenhagen's finest with some great songs. Above: Prokofiev, "Dance Of The Knights". Cycling does not get grander. Below: B52's, "Quiche Lorraine". Oh yeah Quiche has its own pink hair band too.
Lana Del Rey, "Summertime Sadness". Soft light for a soft landing.
Tom Keifer, "The Flower Song". Who knows how what the day will bring?
Arthur Freed, "Singin' in the Rain". Rain can't ruin this party!

Double Dealing Days
Broader and better bike lanes are slowly making it easier to ride side-by-side in Copenhagen for peddling friends and couples. Still, more space is a top priority for many commuters. Above: Heading home from synchronous swimming? Below: Look left!
