If they're anything like the ones in Copenhagen they're coarse enough not to get slippery when wet.

I don't know about Europe, but the plastic lines and letters they put down here are slippery as shit.

Yeah, but we don't have bikes here.

Try harder.

We've almost given up rode riding. It used to be you'd get the occasional jack-ass swerving and laying on the horn but now it is some form of aggression pretty much every time out no matter how carefully you follow the rules of the road. A lot of cyclists ride like punks now feeding that violence. hmmm... sounds like a foru...

The cat calls and honks are nothing.

Amy sound like tough character. She not afraid of big cars. Bet she graduated from all-girls school in Afghanistan.

Whoa, you guys have serious problems over there! I knew bicycling wasn't as widespread in the states as it is in Denmark, but I had no idea motorists are acting hostilely towards bicycle riders.
