BIKING IN COPENHAGEN

Cycling is the cheapest means of transportation next to walking, Copenhageners love their bikes no matter their financial situation. Many middle class families with kids in Copenhagen don't even own a car. They use bikes to commute to work, bring the kids to kindergarten etc. 25 percent of families with two kids in Copenhagen own a cargo bike.
Even top politicians ride their bike every day to Parliament. A majority (63 percent) of the members of the Danish Parliament, located at Christiansborg Castle in the middle of Copenhagen, commute by bike.
As a first time visitor in Copenhagen, the amount of bicycles on the streets can be overwhelming. However, you will soon realise that life in Copenhagen is based on bicycles as a very important means of transportation.
