Last weekend I visited Stockholm, capital of Sweden. There is lot of bicycles, we noticed lot of old Swedish company Crescent bikes there, it's still popular. Unfortunately I haven't seen Crescent bikes in Estonia, but I'm sure that we have Crescen bikes here, because some weeks ago Ilmar sent us old Estonian ad for this company.
I just love this bicycle chain cover! So beautiful!

























































Very cool chain cover. Haven't seen that before.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in Sweden, I didn't see very many cyclists. It was very bike-friendly though. Old town (Gamla Stan) seemed more walkable.
:D I have been in Stockholm several times, but usually at winter or colder times. I didn't wisited Gamla stan this time, but there was lot of cyclist, I was suprised myself too. :)
ReplyDeleteMonth ago in Kärdla, Hiiumaa - in small and cute, just like in tiny model of Estonia amidst blue waters - I spotted young estonian 5-7 y. old boy riding in one super decent old Crescent. But I have spotted more and more.

These are essentially retired, however and the one you photographed is still
working, and that's better.
im a lucky guy, i own two old school Crescent bikes, but i havent used them in ages, but this spring im thinking off taking one out(grown-up size) and fixing it and hittin the streets of Tallinn. Kind sick off only seeing mountain bikes and bmx-es.
