More about Copenhagen...this week

In this week’s Lesley Riddoch Podcast, Lesley is just back from Copenhagen with tales of cycling schemes, organic food and other Danish delights. In particular, Lesley refers to a conversation  she had with Anya Hultberg of the Copenhagen House of Food. Lesley recorded an interview with Anya for Nordic Horizons here.

Just a few points as a cyclist all my life I can’t conceive of people just can’t ‘get on your bike’. As to helmets until a couple of years ago I never wore a helmet but then first I got scooped up onto the bonnet of a repro Beetle and then getting out of the way of a car I tried to bounce up onto a pavement and fell off and the next I knew I was in an ambulance speeding to Livingston hospital.
But to get up and go, have you never been to a BNI breakfast where targets are set and everyone does their best to gee each other up – OK it’s American but non the worst for that.
TheOresund Bridge I have just looked up is 8km , a healthy 16kms round trip and you are bound to have the wind in your face at least one way and I can’t belive the rain is any less in Denmark than Scotland.
BTW borrow bikes have hit London; indeed the bike craze if well and truly on the up and it may surprise the Scots that Lodon is quite hilly. But then the minimum tube fare is £2.80 without an Oyster Card. A recent trip to Barcelona and there the Metro is a flat rate of 2.8 euros.
