When your bike meets a snow plow!

A while back I shared a picture of a bike absolutely buried in a snow drift in snowy Sweden. At the time I joked this might be a good alternative to a lock, because no one's going to bother digging your bike out. Well here's the retort to that idea...


As spring starts to melt the giant snow drifts left by the snow plows in Sweden, this mangled wreck appears out of the ice.


I guess this is why...

...you shouldn't trust your bike to be safe in the snow!

Bicycle Welfare Checkup

I posted about the bicycle drowning in snow during the long Swedish winter.
It didn't seem to be doing too well.

Well here's a spring time update for you.
Someone's picked it up, brushed it off, and left it in the bike stand to rot away in peace for many more months to come! It stands today as a celebration of the fact that even in a bicycle theft capital such as Lund, a really terrible bike will simply not be stolen.
