Yep Germany started this a while back, as have other EU countries .

This was Basel Germany last week , almost every tram to Germany from Basel stopped and every passenger checked.

You get used to it after a while.

Had a great week last week at #eurovision, #Basal #Switzerland did the show proud , whole city seemed to be involved.

Only downside was having to always have passport with you as German Border guards checked ID at the border every time we crossed back into Germany to our Hotel.

Is there a more picture perfect way to travel to @eurovision.tv than taking 3 days travelling by train through @myswitzerland.bsky.social ?

I didn’t think reform would be that close but when the ‘winner’ gets in with 7% of the electorate voting for them and only 30% turn out down 6% on last time what can you expect

It has to be the custom Bob Griffin I had made for world touring in 1989, from the Himalayas to Jungles, pacific islands and all in between it never let me down. Full Campag MTB group set , rerolled MA40 rims and a flex stem to iron out the bumps.
Was stollen in the end in UK :-(

Proof of concept for traffic counter completed and working, next step is to prove it with the fiat 500 and Brompton as they are light and have small wheels.
