- NoS Summary - Various shots of cyclists on the streets of Copenhagen.
British Pathe synopsis: "Cyclists in hundreds - thousands (millions it seemed to our Cameraman!) throng the City of Copenhagen - " M/S of busy street of cyclists. Camera follows them as they pass. M/S of cyclists moving away from the camera. More busy streets, cyclists everywhere. "They even have their special cyclist roads. (Not forgetting the white line down the centre.)" M/S of cyclists on cycle track. "A few days of Copenhagen reduces the pedestrian to a kind of "whirly-wheel" state - " Strange avant garde style sequence with turning wheels, moving lights and double exposures of women pedalling. "Wheels - wheels - wheels!" reads an intertitle - sped up footage of cyclists follows. - Keywords
