Nothing rotten here



RCVman, in his vision quest to become the undisputed leader of global paradigm gear-change, has yet another inspiring international story of acclaim for your consideration and subsequent consent. This one (again) comes from Denmark. It is about their efforts to change the urban landscape by making bikes the go-to mode of personal transport. Nice work boys. Please pay particular note to the green light at steady speed of 20k. Translated, this means that if you can hold 12.42 mph on the flat you can ride this busy stretch of road without having to stop. Can we do this kids?

YES WE CAN.

Also please note the LEDS implanted in the road to signal the presence of a rider. And then the reality that some of us need to haul cargo in our line of work. Wow, a solution.

Would you suspect that I like this approach? Do you?

Just to make sure that you get the picture, story and video, here are the links:

The Vikings came from Scan (Copenhagen). Pretty soon, the big dudes there are going to get in their boats and sail around and knock heads like they used to.

PS - We'll never get this stuff. We have hip-hop instead.

PSSS - I was in that City once, I can go there again. That would spare me having to listen ad nauseum about the ND Senator retiring among other things. Probably worth 15 years or so.
