Wolle, thank you for the great photos. We spent a day In Malmo in the late’90’s while in Copenhagen. The hydrofoil was a quick ride away. Malmo is one of those really interesting places with a lot to see but when we were there it took a back seat to Copenhagen. We visited the science museum…. I remember seeing the submarine but I can’t remember if the technology museum is the same place. Well worth the visit.

In germany this type of bike got the nickname "widow-maker", because it was also very dangerous, hitting a potthole or even breaking
