The Stimulus

From Copenhagenize:

While average citizens on normal bikes who cycle to work or school have no need for useless equipment it is, however, rather vital that the city in which they live is well-equipped for bicycle culture.

Here's another shot of one of our bike lane maintenence vehicles. This one was humming along yesterday, Saturday, sweeping the bike lanes. They're lovely little vechicles. Perfectly designed for the bike lanes. There's always room for cyclists to overtake. When it snows, however, you'll see cyclists sitting comfortably behind them on the freshly cleared bike lane.


So...not only does Denmark have thousands of miles of bicycle infrastructure, they have BIKE MAINTENANCE VEHICLES! I don't know about you, but I would gladly ride in snow if we had bike maintenance vehicles.
