Hello. This is a private noncommercial blog focused on my orange Brompton (R6D), my other bikes (a Moulton AM, …) and to give thoughts to different aspects of being a commuter in the lovely but not too cycle friendly town of Cologne, Germany …
As a complement I show some of my favorite photos, reports and ideas in this personal gallery. To open the content to a wider audience I do my posts in English – not my native language, so sorry if I misspell something.

Pedersen
That's my Pedersen bike - I owned it for more then 15 years and sold it lately. I liked the look of the Pedersen a lot, but cycling on the bike never got me.
