[Picard2011]

Missed the green light and got late for work - just because he wanted to hug me...

[Nicolaipc4]

Hi,

It is nice to see how 'green' Denmark is but what do they do when its winter? I heard their taxes are crazy, like buying a car you get taxes of about 200% so a 20k car becomes 60k. Because of this (one of the reasons) people buy bikes or rent them but what do they do when it's winter?

Thanks.

@acooca123 I live in Copenhagen. It's true the cars are very expensive here, but in the capital it's also much easier to find a (free) parking spot for your bike, than for your car (which also is pricy).

I bike all year round, also in winter (as outlandish as it may seem to you) ;-)

@acooca123 Hi acooca,

a Taxi in copenhagen cost about 150 DKK for 15 minuttes, just about 29 USD.

Like in london we have a big public transportation network as busses metro's and trains. And its free of charge to have your bike transportated in the trains.

@kazinkap

Hehe i think you misunderstood what @acooca123 wrote.

He didn't write taxies but taxes (skat på dansk ;)

[Wonderful81]

@acooca123 We have good public transportation, so in the winter time you can easily go by bus or by train or Metro.

[simonmaersk]

@acooca123 Almost everyone has a car here in Denmark, but people who live in big cities like to use their bikes in stead of cars, because its easier to get through traffic and find parking spots. Then they use their cars in he winter :)

[heyaiamsam]

[MezabarbaBH]

[Cirkelo]

Love Copenhagen in the summer. And I love my bike :)

[Scania164V8power]

very nice

[Devotedism]

I love my car and honestly the bikes are annoying as hell when I drive around Copenhagen. Build more roads and less bike lanes please !

[MezabarbaBH]

@Devotedism Make a deal with me? We change places:

You comes to Belo Horizonte, Brazil with your car - This city have a lot of car lanes and a lot of cars, and I go to CPH with my bycicle.

Agree?

[jackusdk]

That is soooo cute. I think I'm gonna throw up.

[D4AM]

Only reason we love bikes so much is because we have a 188% tax on Cars (new value price times the 188% ) so its madly expensive. it looks great in the movie, but downtown biking in the rush hour is hell, no one cares, people are showing and pushing so you need a hard stomach to live here :)

[lirettype]

@D4AM :

I love my bike; and living in copenhagen is so much more fun the more bicycles there are(and thus the fewer cars). That you dont get this is too bad for you. ;-)

[Dirteey]

You don't have mountains.

[bbrown617]

Ha Cool! In some places you aren't treated like there is something wrong with you if you use a bicycle as your primary form of transport.

[luimife]

I'm so excited, I'm going to Kobenhavn next month for first time :)

[TaeKwonDodk]

@luimife Looking forward to see you then :)

[Mr1FineDay]

This is great. I've never been hugged for riding a bike. In fact, I've encountered much hostility.

[Jesus45U]

MAN .... that looks like hard work !!!

Also, quad lane bicycle paths at 0:39 FTW. :)

[LincolnakaOnion]

I am 15, I have been living in Denmark for half a year and now I HATE BIKES >__<

[SantoRedentor]

What a wonderful country. Here we are so few people who use bycicles as basic transportation

[so0727]

Summer, Copenhagen and happy people <3

[nodanielno]

I was born in the wrong country?
