What does a bike have to do to put me in a good mood? Here's a hint:

I have a feeling it works the same for the owner.

    Hi Sandra, I love this, it also makes me think that customizing your bike would be both make the city prettier and serve as a deterrent for bike thieves. Do your bikes get stolen often in CPH? Because France is supposed to be a nightmare. I remember in Zürich, I was looking at people not bothering to attach their bike, in front of the shops in my neighborhood, like they were completely crazy...

      Hi Carole,
      Oh, yes bike theft if a big issue here. No one ever gets caught, it is a joke. Even if stopped by the police on a stolen bike, all they cite for is traffic violations. Catching bike thieves is not a cash cow. But it would score the police department some high likability points if they at least tried.

      Still more people pimp their bikes here. I think it is in part to make it unattractive to thieves, but it is also a cosy thing. We use our bikes a lot, and it really feels like an extended part of you. This flower says a lot about the spirit of the owner, I think. I instantly like her.

      People used to leave bikes unlocked in the street here too, haha, not anymore.

    We need to decorate your bike for Christmas- that would bring you some cheer for the holidays! Wish I was there to do it ;) Have a great day!

      Oh, you remember? The most dreaded season of all is approaching... maybe it would help to pimp the bike, I will look into it. :-) A great day to you too. And a hug.
