Rowerowe brzmienia w przestrzeni miejskiej Wrocławia
Bike Sounds in the Urban Space of Wrocław

Summary/Abstract: The bike as one of very few vehicles produces the most natural sounds that don’t interfere with the city’s auditory environment. As the sounds are quiet and pleasant, they can easily be an antidote to the traffic noise. In Wrocław there are more and more people who tend to ride a bike, which is undoubtedly a conse¬quence of an improved infrastructure. The bike sounds can be heard all over the urban space all day long. What makes Wroclaw unique is for sure the number of bike related initiatives, most of all the collective monthly bike rides during the so called Critical Masses and the annual Wrocław Bikers Fest. They give a chance to listen to a mosaic of bike-produced sounds as well as bike-dedicated music.
