scary movie

they will come to you from behind, when you least expect them.
they will scratch your car if you piss them off.
they are the kings and queens of the road, and their reign is unshakable.
they are *drums drums drums*
the bicyclists.

welcome to copenhagen, the city of bicyclers. everything else doesn't really count, unless you're a minority, and then you might get the time of day, but only if you've suffered a lot (or can fake it).

bicycles outnumber cars, and i think people as well. parents drive their bicycles carrying their babies in a special bicycle cabin.
there are roads and traffic lights dedicated to bicyclers, and if you cross over to their side you just put your faith in the lord, and may I say even he has standards for salvation, and i'm not sure he'll be willing to take up against them.

so, my best advice to all you people coming to copenhagen - if you can't beat them, why not join them.
get on a bicycle, and enjoy this lovely city. it's flat (the highest point in denmark is 147 meters, i'm told), it's not too big, and it's very convenient to drive around.
so go for it!
