Tuesday, September 30

City bikes have a delivery point diagonally opposite Alepa. Today, when I go to buy piimä for Shanti and hummus for Irma I notice that the delivery point has many more bikes than spaces for bikes. I count 29 or 30.

Actually I count 29 bikes, do it again and count 30 bikes, and decide not to run a tiebreaker.

The bikes are scattered over the pavement, blocking the way for anyone with mobility problems. On the other side of the road 3 e-bikes from Ryde block the pavement, lying on their sides in a heap.

Behind me 2 e-bikes from Bird stand neatly on the pavement while a third lies across it.

Ho hum, I say.
