Here in Sweden it is Midsummer Day today. Which naturally means that Midsummer Eve was yesterday. In Sweden Midsummer Eve is traditionally celebrated in the countryside, and involves a lot of eating (new potatoes and pickled herring, traditionally) and drinking alcohol-containing beverages. Which, again, naturally means that a lot of people spend Midsummer Day with a hangover. (Or with a coppersmith, as we say in Finland.) Not us, though! Parts of Ensliga Bergens cykelklubb has spent a part of the day having a bicycle school, of sorts.
And today we also have a tip for Västtrafik - the company who runs public transport here in the region of Västra Götaland, Sweden. Or for anyone else who thinks that it's a good idea, for that matter. We saw this sticker on a bus in Stockholm. The text says "The hidden-angle! The bus driver can't see you here." A cautionary word for rush hour in the city. A really simple, yet brilliant idea!
