The Bicycles Roll On

Problems for Cars and Public Transport But Not Bikes
With snow dumping down over Copenhagen, it's a joy to see the cars driving slower [see below] and you can bet your bottom snowflake we'll be sledding in the 20+ cm of the stuff later on today.

I loved reading the above article, warning about the snow. It can cause "problems for cars and public transport." No mention of bicycles. They're rolling past the window as I write this. It really is the quickest way to get around, even in the snow.


And here's a film from last winter showing how civilised the motorised traffic is when it's forced to drive slow.

I miss the snow!

Do people use studded tires on their bikes at all in Copenhagen?

Most people don't. But most people don't have ultra thin racer tires to begin with.
