Thanks for looking, Bob.

Copenhagen is a lovely city, well worth a visit. The transport system  
is excellent, with regional trains, buses and a metro, so to get  
around you do not need a car. One reason for renting one is to take a  
day trip to Sweden. I have a favorite route that I sometimes take.

I would recommend visiting only between May and September, though. The  
fall and winter are dreary, with just a few hours of daylight, and  
what light there is requires at least ISO 400 at f4 or wider. I go  
there in November because the 1st is the anniversary of my father's  
death, but without that kind of emotional connection I would recommend  
visiting in the summer.

To answer your questions: yes, the bikes are locked, and English is  
widely spoken. German much less so.

Cheers,
Nathan
