Cycling
is the fastest, the cheapest, and the most enjoyable way to get to
know the city, of course, when the weather is good.
Almost
everyone who lives in this city has a bicycle. But most of the
visitors are still shocked by plenty numbers of the bicycle and the
cyclists, from students to police officers, from housekeepers until
bank managers. The cyclist uses as transportation to go and from
work. They are transporting children to and from school or carrying
anything from groceries, carrying house pets, even furniture.
