I had meant to take these pictures a long time ago to show how many bikes they have. I've seen another station in a bigger town that had like 10 times more bikes than this! I'm amazed! LOL! I also feel safe biking here in Denmark, the drivers(mostly) respect the bicyclists. At least it's been my experience so far.

I don't think many of those bikes are chained .. and I can't see any CCTVs -- which would also attest to the sense of security there. |

that's impressive for sure! I think a lot more people would use them here if there weren't so many hills, but there's really no excuse in flatter areas - well, apart from people showing-off... |

Alot of them have wheel locks. I'm sure bolt cutters can hack them off, but if someone really wants your bike, they can always find a way. They have a section in the back, the last two or three bike port/buildings that require a pin code. It's locked up. You pay the commune extra to park your bike in there. My hubby says it's best to have a good bike, and a crap bike. Makes good sense. I know people that used to drive their crap cars into NYC, and their good cars around their local suburbs...LOL! Same kind of theme.. |

Thanks Pirty. Reminds me of an advert running in the UK about celebs in LA having 2 cars : one to show the visitors, and (a Renault I think) for their day to day use. |

I'll have to repost them. I moved them to an album. I think that's why. I'll fix it now. :-) |
