Even though there are no real cycle facilities like bike lanes or paths in the centre of Milan a lot of people do use their bikes for every day purposes. The city of Milan allows cycling in the pedestrian areas and it created bike parking facilites even in places where cars would otherwise be parking. There is also a bike sharing programm that seems to be used well. Very striking was the fact that men and women ride the same bikes. As opposed to northern European countries where men and women ride a different type of bicycle.

The bicycles in the sharing program don't seem to have a chain. Are they shaft-driven?
lol the very last bike 😀
they are locked in the front, yes they are shaft-driven
I thought it would be nice to give an updated video of Italy ! I just went there in August 2014. Check it out and let me know what you think! xoxox Cassandra McClure http://youtu.be/7i8gFnHYKw8 #cassandramcclure.com @cassandramcclure http://www.cassandramcclure.com
