Three girls on a snowy street

It is not easy to bike on a snowy cobblestone street such as basically all streets in the Lund city center. A good thing is that you can just walk your bike until conditions improve.

Red Military bike

I think this is one of the original Swedish army bikes painted red but it could also be an old Kronan copy. The copys by Kronan just just dont tend do get very old. Cool dude on a cool bike anyway.

"Muskhjälpen"

Picture from Gustav Adolfs Torg were "musikhjälpen" a charity and radioshow is sending live from the square 24/7. Lots of people Gathering for a good cause. A good thing with a bike is that it fits very well even in a crowded environment. Just as long as you do as the gentleman in the photo and walk your bike through a crowd everything is going smooth. To contribute to "musikhjälpen" and fight exploitation of children please go to their homepage.

San Francisco

A few pics from my trip to San Francisco in November. The US is a car country but there are places with some hope left. San Francisco is one of those citys with a growing bicycle movement. Here is the Bart Station 16th Mission Street, a real example for Europe when it comes to inter modal transport hubs. The stairs are decorated with old bicycle gears:

Of course you can bring your bike on the subway:

Or leave it on the indoor bike parking lott:

But best of all is to use it on the streets:

I cant resist to publish a photo of one of the beautifully restored old trams that San Francisco are not famous for. Cable cars are fun but these are even better.

Nobelvägen, bikes and mirror

I just love this photo by Ola Lindberg. It is so very, very Malmö. The subtle charm of concrete and asphalt in a fifties retro style that you will find in large parts of the city.

Ny Design, Nytt Språk

Bloggen kommer att publiceras helt på Engelska framöver. Över hälften av besökarna är icke Svensktalande och det ser bättre ut med ett språk.
The blog will be published in English only from now on. More than half of the visitors is not Swedish speaking and it looks better with just one language.

Mannen med liggcykeln / The man with the lie down bike

I en liten stad som Lund är det inte svårt att bli en lokal kändis. Den här killen tex. har blivit en bara genom att åka runt på en extraordinär cykel. Cool snubbe!

In a small town like Lund it does not take much effort to become a local celebrity. This guy for example has become one just by riding an extraordinary bike. Cool dude!

Regn och rusk / Rainy weather

Bad weather does not mean bad clothing as this girl is an excellent example of.

Varning för snuten! / Warning Cops!

Polisen är på hugget mot cyklister i Lund för tillfället. Sydsvenskan har skrivit om detta. Här stoppas cyklister och bötfälls för att ha kört mot enkelriktat. På Malmö Lund Cycle Chic tycker vi att det finns viktigare uppgifter för polisen, som att bötfälla bilister som kör för fort tex.

Police is on the move against bikers in Lund at the moment. Sydsvenskan had an article on this. Here bikers are stopped and fined for riding in the wrong direction on a one way road. At Malmö Lund Cycle Chic we think there are more important tasks for the police, like fining car drivers speeding for example.
