World Wide Wednesday in Helsinki

When crossing the street
Better be quick on your feet
The bikerettes are on the move
In their vehicles of blue
With wheels of two

A Bike Ride Away

Pick the little yellow ride
And with a smile away
You will smoothly glide

Jopo bicycle, celebrating 50 years 11.09.2015

In nineteen sixty five
It was made to drive
Vintage like myself
From the top shelf
It may be simple
But a smile with a dimple
When riding this bike
Which everyone likes
