Hill training in Denmark



Simon is not lost but has travelled to Denmark to do some serious hill training! The picture shows me on the Vestas guest bike travelling through the Lem windfarm - don't let the picture deceive you, the gradient is very steep!!

Some facts you probably didn't know about Denmark:
  • The highest point in Denmark is 170m above sea level
  • 18% of all journeys are by bicycle, second only to the Netherlands (UK is less than 1%)
  • Danes travel an average of 1.6km per day per head of the population by bicycle(UK less than 0.2km)
  • Carlsberg is not the best beer in the world!
