I have been traveling lately. This year, my folder ( a highly modified 'twenty') and I went to Seoul, Paris, and London. It is never a mistake to have your bike with you. I am glad I have discovered the joys of folding bikes,thanks to the help of the people on this forum. I now travel with my bike like the rest of the world takes a lap-top or an extra sweater. It is a very nice way to see the town. I just got back from London and the folders are everywhere. It is a huge folder society, unlike any other. It is not a bad city to ride in if you can ride on the left, think on the left....

I just got back from Australia. I wished like hell that I had taken my bike, but I absolutely would have killed myself riding on the left.

I was in Surfer's Paradise (near Brisbane) and there were plenty of bikers, but not many bike lanes. It was a little bit of a free-for-all.
