Bikes Galore!

In Copenhagen, walking from the train station to our hotel, the main thing I noticed was the number of bikes in town, and how disciplined they all were.

A great story telling shot!

great street shot and I like your DOF.

That's what I remember about Copenhagen, just unfeasible numbers of bikes, more so than Amsterdam.

Well this is the ideal isn’t it? I think cycle lanes are the aim of every city council in the UK. Many complaints from car drivers in Preston as they change roads to allow for cyclists & try & discourage cars.
The cyclists here are all looking well organised & happy to travel like that.
Our eldest son went to Denmark many years ago to train in hoof clipping for cows & he said then the bicycle is king!

@happypat Problem in the UK is that we try to use the same amount of space but have separate lanes for bikes. It doesn't work well for either cyclists or motorists. Copenhagen is so well organised. The bicycle is indeed king!

[Pat Knowles]

@jamibann Exactly!!

[Taffy]

An impressively spaced tight crowd of bikes. Cleary they are experienced in urban biking.

Terrific street scene.

I've been watching some programs set in Denmark and noticed the bikes in them. I always wanted to do more biking here, but the roads are not made to do it safely. I figured with my early morning hours, it wouldn't be safe.

Oh wow that is a big group of bikers and very close together, impressive!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

This looks safe enough- and for that reason you can tell it's not an American city. People are more likely to walk due to the overabundance of buses and cars.

Great city scene.

Great shot! Good to see so many cyclists
