bicycle and trade
posted on Apr 13, 2008 in city tour, people

dated back to the 70’s when Jogja was predominated by bicycle as mode of transportation. it was a common habit among people of rural areas around Jogja to go to the city by bike every morning. labors went to their workplaces, and peasants transported crops and vegetables from their fields to big markets (we call it pasar) such as Pasar Kranggan and Pasar Beringharjo in the center of the city.
recently, bicycle has been replaced by motorbike as popular mode of transportation for daily activities. but still, we can find hundreds of them covering the left lane of streets every morning and afternoon, just a few minutes outside Jogja.
