On The Road – Two Wheels Good
One sunny day, last spring, I filmed my usual ride to work from our apartment in riot-ridden Nørrebro, to my quiet little office (UOVO) in Copenhagen center.
We are set up in an artist cooperative (in what used to be a home for orphaned boys, in the 1800′s).
I like to think of it as a mini Christiania. Why? Well, it’s cozy as hell, and someone has potted “herbs” sitting on our window sill soaking up the sun, and there is a dog that roams freely in the courtyard. Her name is Bob. Bob the Bitch.
This was my routine most mornings, back in the day when I’d get to work before Kevin, have the coffee on, and we’d shoot the poop until we had to get down to business.
Now it’s a whole different ball of wax. I miss my bike. Talking baby talk in the mornings suits me fine, though, since I’m so darned tired=)
Is that some handy camerawork or what?
One hand, Ma!
Why do this now? Well, after having avidly followed Copenhagenize for a good while now, and having done so much lately for the Danish Cycle Federation I thought it would be a good time to just mention that I do bike. At least when I’m in Copenhagen I do. I have yet to get me a pair of wheels up here in Stockholm. So I walk, and take the tube.
Miss that bike.
