<\/p>\n

I’m in Stockholm, Sweden for a week and plan to post my observations about the city’s public realm as much as possible during my time here. I got in late today after spending 8 hours waiting in NYC to transfer to my Swedish flight (thank you, Red Terror Alert). Anyway, the first thing I saw after I walked out of Central Station (Stockholm’s Union Station) was row upon row of bikes locked up (above photo). I think it bodes well for my trip.<\/p>\n

Also, Joe Travers at Biking TO<\/a> has posted real-life photos of the Quay to the City<\/a> (no more artists’ renderings!) all decked out as bike and pedetrian friendly zone (pics by<\/em> Peter Hudd<\/em><\/a>). Check out the rest of the images here<\/a>.
