Cyclos

Click on photo for larger version.

These tricycle taxis are all over Frankfurt. Somebody told me that they have been spotted in Dublin. Frankfurt, of course, has a network of proper bicycle lanes, unlike Dublin. With the Green Party in Government, you'd never know what changes, for the better, might take place. I was introduced to this great city transport idea in Viet Nam, a few years back. There, they are called cyclos (pronounced see clos). One U.S. Dollar gets you from one end of Saigon to the other, in double quick time, through the chaotic traffic. Which reminds me to say that I am going on a mega photo shoot to that part of the world (Viet Nam, Cambodia, Laos and Thailand) in December. Anyone who wants to join me is welcome to contact me.
