Bikes

Here's a pic of the bike rack at the train station near my apt. called Ostbahnhof. Lots of people ride bikes here, and there are a lot of bike lanes. Also, they are treated like legitimate traffic, and not just a nuisance on the road. I may have to reconsider my platform on bike traffic in the States, although I don't look forward to being behind a bike when I am driving, going slow and wanting to pass without sideswiping the bike. Here there are more bike lanes though too, so I think that makes a difference also. I am thinking about getting a used bike to use while I am here, thus reversing my platform on exercise also. Wow, Europe is really changing me!
