Most of you know that I am an avid cycling fan and a bicycle owner too, so this is good news for me: Italians bought more bicycles than cars in 2011 for the first time in decades, according to local media reports.
Last year around 1.75 million bicycles were sold, about 2,000 more than the number of new cars registered.
The change is attributed to a slump in car sales during the economic crisis and the rising price of petrol, as well as bikes coming back into fashion.
Car sales in Italy have slumped to the level at which they stood in 1964!
I guess that's one of the few good sides to the economic crisis, it made some people turn to healthier means of transportation.
When are you going to get yourself a bicycle?

You guys probably have the highest numbers of bikes per capita
I like riding a bike but it wasn't really possible before.
