Kopaja mini busses stop for just few seconds under the pederstain bridge near Senayan. People have to jump off and jump in sometimes when the bus is still moving. They cannot really stop as the road is very congested in the morning.
This week was a good week for bicycle commuting. I saw fellow bicycle commuters almost everyday. Here is one who was riding in front of me near the Polda head office in Senopati in Jakarta. He went straight at the next crossiong, I turned left. For few seconds two bicycle commuters riding the same road!
Near where we live there is a collection point of these empty 19 litres bottles. They then bring them somewhere to be cleaned and refilled.
Too few bicycle commuters in Jakarta. We need more of them. Join us! @Bike2WorkIndonesia
It was nice to walk along Kemang Timur searching for furniture shops. We walked by the Masjid Nurul Huda and I asked the old man sitting at the entrance if I could take a picture of him and his friend. He smiled and said: ‘Boleh’ (You can). Tomorrow the Ramadan begins.
The end of the school year is approaching fast here in Jakarta. Sometime I cycle through streets that are closed to traffic because of year-end ceremonies . That brings food sellers outside the gate of schools where kids go and buy a snack.
A bit of editing around this office tower in South Jakarta.
