Out on the countryside in Sweden and especially on islands like Gotland, there are many old bicycles used everywhere. Especially in the evenings when getting to and from different pleasures or meeting places. This one is an old military bicycle from the Gotlandic KA3 regiment.
Bicycles are popular not only for the exercise reason or as an environment friendly holiday option – Gotland is known as a biking holiday island, but I suspect the main reason is to avoid driving a car when having some refreshing evening drinks…

As an artist, I love the old school design of those bikes. Those handle bars are fantastic.
It could be my imagination, but it seems like Europe is much more bike friendly than the U.S.
