I suspect it will be ever more wintery when you head to Copenhagen. Should you find yourself passing through central London send me an email - would love to shout you a coffee (not that UK coffee is up to Aussie standards to be honest!)ibikelondonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06978714126105951294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7129037502516609710.post-90283629678976502202010-01-06T19:48:46.882+00:002010-01-06T19:48:46.882+00:00happy new year, mark! loved mike's video - am ...happy new year, mark! loved mike's video - am in the uk briefly for the next 2 weeks visiting family - loving the snow! also loving the empty roads - bliss!!! - armed with new camera and ready to photograph cyclists in the snow - such a random concept for australians!!!!Freedom Cyclisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11187400454555241935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7129037502516609710.post-14414051283002252692010-01-05T17:42:54.202+00:002010-01-05T17:42:54.202+00:00Mark,

Isn't it strange that everyday cycling has become so 'other' that this video seems strange to us, rather than the norm?ibikelondonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06978714126105951294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7129037502516609710.post-51925194459919440202010-01-05T01:01:41.704+00:002010-01-05T01:01:41.704+00:00Nice video.

And/or have people make their own bicycle video from selected images. <br /><br />Seems that curiosity in such foreign things (everyday cycling) will come with some connection to familiarity.Christahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09457121626940305454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7129037502516609710.post-22954629689069264402010-01-04T22:37:16.686+00:002010-01-04T22:37:16.686+00:00Smiled through the whole video!
