Power to the Pedals!

Pin It
Summer is coming and our vacations in Europe are approaching. Maybe it is because of that, or it is just my mind, but I see bicycles in every magazine and every website I click on. Here in Cabo it is almost impossible to ride a bike. With dirt roads, steep mountain roads and town roads, where we have 1 lane for every moving object: cars, motorbikes, trucks, bike-taxis, a few bikes and pedestrians – yes, no bike tracks or pavements for pedestrians are available here.
When living in Ljubljana, I rode my beautiful red city bike up and down the city. A bike in Ljubljana is a perfect vehicle, because it can take you anywhere and everywhere, and streets and the city are bike-friendly. It’s kind of romantic, love (wind) in the air, ‘cruising’ along the river, and stopping now and then to say hi to your friends, and joining them for a drink or two…
So, I look around and I see this:

    Hejla. Tudi jaz pogreÅ¡am kolo. Vsa tista, ki so mi jih v Ljubljani ukradli 🙂
    A na žalost je tudi v Madridu vožnja s kolesom nameren samomor, hehe. Na žalost. A mislim, da se bodo Evropska mesta začela temeljito spreminjati s temi neverjetnimi cenami nafte. Tukaj so že sprejeli projekt, da bodo Madrid spremenili v kolesarjem prijazno mesto! Ljubljana je v tem smislu daleč pred ostalimi!!!

    Hola Jana, to je res fajn slisati, da bo tudi Madrid postal kolesarjem prijazno mesto! Super.
    In se strinjam, Ljubljana je res zakon v tem smislu 🙂
    Kaj sploh delava tako dales od doma 😛 hihihi

    haha. To pomeni, da na Slovenijo nismo pozabili 🙂 Kjer koli že smo!
    Ko bo Madrid postal kolesarjem prijazno mesto, mene več ne bo tukaj :(:(:(

    oh, kolo!!! in poletni dnevi, ko se lahko brezskrbno voziÅ¡ po Tivoliju, zaideÅ¡ v ljubljanske uličice in se ustaviÅ¡ na tržnici. ker lahko prideÅ¡ kamorkoli želiÅ¡. ta dvokolesna stvar je enostavno genialna stvaritev. 🙂
    in ja, zares obožujem kolo. moje je prav posebno. oranžno, porisano z zelenimi pikami in belimi marjeticami. moje najljubše.

    naj vama priÅ¡epnem, da je Ljubljana po novem zaprta za avtomobile! popolnoma. 3x hura za kolesarje 😉

    mankica, potem so tvoje putke dobile navdih s tvojega kolesa ali obratno?

    fajn je slisat, da je ljubljana kolesarjem prijazna, komaj cakam da se popeljem s kolesom cez tromostovje, pa do cajne hise in do sustarskega mosta, do paninoteke ali bi.ko.feja na belo kavo in sendvic s kraskim prsutom 🙂

    Uff, ti, a veÅ¡, da ne vem, kj je bilo prej kolo ali jajce. Ups, kokoÅ¡ka 😉 mislim, da so tako kolo, kot tudi kokoÅ¡ke nastali v približno istem – očitno pikčastem – obdobju, ki sem ga imela 🙂

    kar pa se tiče Ljubljane pa res, ja… res je krasno mesto. ko se lahko zapeljeÅ¡ kamorkoli želiÅ¡ in na poti srečaÅ¡ prijatelja ali dva… v Ljubljani se je rodilo Å¡e nekaj novih kavarnic. mesto pa je v teh mesecih zares Å¡e posebej lepo.

    p.s.: trenutno sem v Londonu, sem priÅ¡la malo obiskati sestrično, ki živi tukaj in sem ji tudi prinesla malo slovenske hrane – med drugim prav kraÅ¡ki prÅ¡ut ja 🙂
