Bike rack

The bike rack is located in the small French town of Sens, situated in the northern part of the region of Bourgogne. The town has its contemporary name from the Senonian tribes of Gaul, who invaded Rome in the 360s BC. The empire, however, struck back in 58 AD when Julius Caesar, the Roman commander, conquered Gaul and placed his headquarters by Sens — at that time known in Latin as Agedincum. Despite fierce resistance the wars against the Romans ended in the entire Gaul’s defeat. Or perhaps not all of Gaul? 2000 years later, millions of people still participate in the struggle against "the crazy Romans" along with amiable cartoon figures Asterix and Obelix. Walking in the footsteps of our Gallic heroes along the Roman roads of France, the volume 'Asterix and the Golden Sickle' features the sign pointing in the direction of Agedincum – and thus present-day Sens – on page 23. Today the town welcomes invading tourists by offering free bike taxis during the hours between 10:00 and 12:30 in the morning.
