My roots …

All cyclists have green, but the motorists are not aware of it because they don’t see the traffic light (which is only meant for the cyclists).

I locked my own bike up and then proceeded to…

I like to smoke …
…. while I’m cycling in my velomobile. People don’t understand; cycling and smoking doesn’t seem appropriate. This old advertisement shows otherwise 😉 I’m not the only one …. see here for a short slideshow.
