Happy St. Patrick’s Day, and welcome back to A Billion Bikes!

Part 3 of our current program brings us downtown to mix it up with traffic in Copenhagen. Get a good look at not only the green cycle routes across the city, but also the curb-protected roadside “cycle tracks”, the blue-painted intersection pavement guides, and bicycle-specific traffic lights. What an amazing mix they’ve accomplished, with not only a third of their commuting population bicycling in each day, but in a system so well thought out that kids and families ride through the city right along with them.

But first, saying a big hello is Bill Mould, Chief Mechanic of Spokes Etc in Alexandria, Virginia. We’ll be visiting Bill soon for some helpful coaching to keep your bike spinning strong.

Next week we’ll expand the program a bit, and visit some bicycling adventure in the US. See you then!

Our first episode takes us to the Danish city of Copenhagen, which has one of the most advanced urban bicycling communities in the world. A full third of their city workforce commutes by bicycle! This is an excellent 5-part program of weekly episodes, and is generously provided by the City of Copenhagen, found at http://www.vejpark.kk.dk . But first a brief hello from Tour de France champion Floyd Landis, and a fun open.

All programs on A Billion Bikes will be available as a free video podcast subscription at iTunes and other distributors, and as a Flash movie linked here through ABillionBikes.com .

I’m very happy to welcome you, and hope you’ll join us each week for bicycling culture in America and abroad. Welcome to A Billion Bikes!
