Nobody needs to drive a #car & go 50 km/h on an #island. Our dear friends from Düsseldorf ("Mobilität neu denken") will give you a sticky reminder & a bunch of alternative solutions. Happy Easter from GER, North Sea! @keert.bsky.social @thewaroncars.bsky.social
Country road in the middle of the island of Norderney on a rainy day. Traffic sign allows for 50km/h. POV: Bus stop. Hilly.Destination board at bus terminal. Line 4 going to "Oasis". We see a bike, too, and the phone number of a taxi company on the wall. Misty day.Daffodils on a hill. On the left there is a path. Sunny day with blue sky.North Sea, Nordstrand Norderney.

Well that was rather wet - so much so the decks got overwhelmed with water and caused an early finish/DnB in a Wickes car park instead. Fortunately our waterpoofing held out ok #DnBOnTheBike #CargoBike
