Comments on: Cycling Friendly Cities http://quickrelease.tv/?p=60 Bicycle videos and fluff Wed, 19 Jun 2013 16:44:31 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.5 By: Sanjay http://quickrelease.tv/?p=60#comment-1206 Sanjay Mon, 07 May 2007 21:30:27 +0000 http://quickrelease.tv/?p=60#comment-1206 Excellent video if a trifle sentimental. How about adding a two minute bit at the end showing cycling facilities in the UK, say in a new town like Milton Keynes? You know like where cyclists, pedestrians and the rest squabble and run each other over on pavements painted red, oh I mean Redways. (Whilst cars roar along at 60 and 70mph in the new city). Now, that would be a wake up call to transport planners in the UK - all in a 20 minute video. Short and sweet ! Excellent video if a trifle sentimental.

We are neighbours of Spain and we understand them fairly easily but they don't understand us that well, so... Anyway, really great video! Hope it gets translated to every language in the world! :-) Eheheh, no, I mentioned the portuguese sub-titled version just as an example of the film’s success. ;-) And those sub-titles are of little interest to the spanish-speaking Colombia.

Thanks for sending the Google link, Ana. I guess the Portugese angle comes from the Colombia/Penalosa angle.

The more exposure the better! :-) This is a really inspiring (and at the same time, frustrating) video. :-) And it has been easily available online for some time now on Google Video, even in a portuguese sub-titled version (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3756757463272488023&sourceid=docidfeed&hl=en) ;-) But thanks for posting it to YouTube, though.
