Hi, cyclist! Rest your foot here… and thank you for cycling in the city of Copenhagen #cycling

From Copenhagenize another newly introduced piece of assistance for cyclists. A footrest and bar for cyclists to lean against when stopped at crossings and lights.
It says “Hi, cyclist! Rest your foot here… and thank you for cycling in the city.”
The blog post says it was introduced with no announcement or fanfare just:
It’s a tiny detail. No bells and whistles, just a simple idea to make a tiny fraction of the day a little bit easier for a small percentage of the cycling citizens of the city.
I quite like this comment made to the post from Townmouse:
Um, look. This is getting ridiculous. Do you think you and the Dutch could just stop with the bicycle infrastructure for a bit so the rest of us could catch up? And maybe if you guys have the equivalent of VSO or the Peace Corps or something you could send some traffic enginers to the developing (cycle) nations like the UK?
