having to visit CPH very frequently and haemorraghing dkk every time i've been struggling with ways to reduce costs .. already staying in the cheap, or more accurately less-expensive-than-other, hotels on what i think is probably hooker street, the one result so far is a tiny chinese take out/ 3 table restaurant called 'noodle house' which serves the best chinese food i've had anywhere at what for CPH is at cheap prices, 2 mins walk from central stn, address - Abel Cathrines Gade 23 1654 København
any tips welcome.
i'm doing about 1.5-2 times a 3 zone klippenkort every visit and figuring i should probably just bring over a beater next time or pick one up here but need some advice on where to leave it locked up so iit won't be completely exposed to the elements, outside central stn would be ideal but there's no cover and it will rust like crazy.....
I will try out the Noodle House - bike thiefs haunts the Central station and Nørreport, so make sure it's a beater and it has no fancy parts installed. And somehow locked on to something :]

working way through the noodle house menu .. close to plucking up the courage for pig's ears next time, followed by the chicken feet early 2014 if i can drink enough carlsberg first and still be able to order!
orestad st is covered, seems safer?
stunned at the locking of bikes in central e.g. u-lock through rear wheel and frame with nothing attaching bikes to a stand??!! in Ldn i'd call that an insurance scam attempt!

I remember someone on here calling Copenhagen a "comedy-lock extravaganza". Quite fitting.

Heading to Copenhagen in Feb for a few days - is there anywhere I can hire a road bike from?

GTs, seems rather expensive, but I've never heard of other places. -

That's not much cheaper than taking my roadbike on Easyjet...

Try asking on fixie-king if you can borrow one privately. I would offer you one, but don't own any road bike yet.

You can borrow my Dolan Preffisio size 54-58 (I have various length of stems), it's a blast!
-

And if it needs to be slightly larger, then I can sort you out
-
• #61
If someone could lend me something that would be massively appreciated.
Second weekend in Feb, ride a 58/59 usually.
If I got a Fixie King instagram even better!!

Don't mention the war - there is a Fixieking vs. GearKing #gksportivo dispute :D
- when the date appears closer in the horizon, feel free to PM, JesperXT lives next door so bikeswap easy as well. Shoe size, favourite food&colour?

Sorry for digging this up, but my missus is moving to copenhagen for 4 months between early august and mid/late december.
She's studying in Christianshavn and is hoping to find a room to stay in close by if at all possible.
Any locals who have a room/ no of a possible spare?
Or would jus be up for hanging out at somepoint maybe?Cheers

We are a lot of cunts hanging out - will pay attention if I hear about a room.
-
• #65
much appreciated.
will be coming put early september for a week or so which should be fun -
• #66
What's she studying?
I'll keep an eye out. -
• #67
She studies Contemporary Dance.
Forgotten the name of the school out there though. -

Very cool.
It's very easy to get around here especially by bike so anywhere with a postal code below 2300 should be manageable.
The main market for everything including rooms and flats is dba.dk
The terms to search for are: fremleje, værelse, lejlighed.
You gotta be quick though, the good ones go extremely fast especially start august. Generally, if the ad is more than a few days old and not taken yet it's either too expensive or otherwise rotten. -

Bidding auction for this rat 500,- if you fancy doing a bid. Needs a saddle according to sellers advertisement, but I have one you can have http://fixie-king.dk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=21758 - I can sell it for you when you no longer is in country.

Hi! Will be in Copenhagen from 14-17 July. 3 nights..looking for a bit of advice about what area to look at for AirBnB in the centre and tips about renting 2 city bikes for a day to cruise around on! Cheers!

Look to stay in nørrebro or vesterbro or as close to the lakes as possible.
Don't know anything about bike rentals.
Some of the new bikeracks on Nørreport Station are covered, I think. Dunno about theft, though...
