Stavanger is the fourth biggest city in Norway. It is situated on the southwest coast.
My aim is to try to capture something from every day, from the area nearby too, and when I am not at home I will still try to put up a photo from my archive.
Welcome back for another look.
Riding a pace line is a special skill developed by serious cyclists. It is dangerous, but a much faster way to ride. Great photo of this group of riders. Always good to share the road.
I don't know if they're sporty or brave or just plain dumb. In this area, bicycles have as much of a right to the road as other vehicles but that doesn't help much when a lot of drivers hate bicycles on the road and sometimes run them over deliberately. We see riders like this all the time and it's not so bad if they're on a wide road, but sometimes they're on roads with nowhere to go if a car comes up behind them.
It's a cool photo, Gunn, and I hope they made it home safely!
That's nice to see. Some motorists think they own the road especially in big cities.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo, Gunn !

Bill you live in a different world, Cyclists in this country are a law unto themselves making more enemy's than friends
ReplyDeleteI don't know how they do it!
