Constance and her vintage Mercier fixie. Photos by The Bikerist
(She mounted her bike with the help of le Petit Boyauteur)
Constance rides cool not nervous, she likes to speak about her bikes,
she cycles since a long time and has 4 bicycles. Her other bicycles bear the name of original owners : Malek, Alfreda, Lucien, Théophile.When we discussed to choose a bicycle, we hesitated not so long, and we chose the Mercier, her grand mother’s bike ! She cycles with it everyday, she’s proud of it and she wants to show a picture of her with the bike to her grand mother. Check the close-up on the head tube with the old registration plate of her grand mother, that still there.
Creative, Constance made her own singular pendant (cf the close-up) with a little blue piece of metal cut from the frame, (that originally carry the pump under the frame on this type of bike). She recycled the part and created a cool blue gloss necklace !
Also take a look at her peculiar wheels, these are kind of protoypes, unique color and less spokes because hubs didn’t have the good number of holes!
The S-Trains already are the envy of transportation planners around the world. I’ve ridden them dozens of times, and some cars were already dedicated to bike commuters. These new cars are put other subways in check. Brilliant idea to have them enter in one door, and exit via one way the other. So efficient.
Copenhagen is doubling the space for bikes on a number of its suburban trains to meet growth stimulated by the switch to free bike travel.
The Copenhagen S-train has also introduced one-way traffic in the new bike compartments to make it easier and faster to get on and off.
Ten S-Trains are being remodelled with the new compartments, which are in the middle of the train so that there is more space for bikes on the platform.
The train system in the Danish capital is being gradually improved for travellers with bikes as increasing numbers of passengers are combining bike and train for their commute.
