So many days of the year, Copenhagen is covered in clouds, rain or even snow. When the sun decides to pop by, everyone goes out of their way to get out. Frequently accompagnied by the faithful 'garden gate' or 'havelåge', as the bike is called teasingly in Danish.
Not all Danish girls are blond. And not all of Copenhagen's girls bike... But some do. A lot, actually, and they do it with summerly laid-back grace.
And while we're not shy about our affection for The Cycling Girl here on the blog, here's a bike that accomodates seven of them at once. Fourteen heels. And a dog.
The Danish summer is full of rain AND sun. Thus, all kinds of rainbows fill the streets...
As we've stated earlier at copenhagenize.com, colours make bikes and their owners stand out. They are a savoury spice to a rolling bike culture. Bring them on!
Town is buzzing with the yearly Copenhagen Jazz Festival. Everyone is out on their bikes, shopping a bit of bebop, avantgarde and New Orleans... 900 concerts all in all. Yes, that's a lot.
They're just everywhere, these girls on bikes. The grace! The casualness! The everyday coolness of being! We've said it before. Style over speed. In this photo, it's easy to see who's into it and who isn't. The light is red all the same.
Copenhagen Cycle Chic goes quizzing: Spot the two pizzas, the 8 rolls of toilet paper, the dog Victor and the bottle of Jack D. Shouldn't be that difficult.
And find spring. It's all over town. Rays of sunshine at 7 pm. Yay.
What's the strangest thing you've ever carried on your bike?
We've stated recently that red is the new black in Cycle Chic Copenhagen. One day passes by and blue has become the new red. Slightly confused? Don't worry. You're welcome to leave the colour craze up to others and just enjoy the pictures... Who knows, black might be the new blue next week anyways :-)
