Stig Traavik and Casper Klynge
Vikings and Biking

In a bid to promote a more sustainable mode of transportation, Norwegian Ambassador Stig Traavik and Danish Ambassador Casper Klynge, started the #VikingBikingIndonesia movement. They collaborated with the Bike2Work community and held their first event around Jakarta's National Monument on February 13. #VikingBikingIndonesia is planned to be a bimonthly event.

Traavik, who rides his bicycle to work every day said that his 10-minute morning commute was the best part of his day. "I want more people to have that experience, especially in the Jakarta traffic. It's fun to bike," he told Tempo. Traavik also mentioned that they wanted to promote a healthier lifestyle. "The biggest threat to our health now is inactivity."
