Cykel Jørgen lived in Christiania from the very beginning. He lived in the part of Christiania called Norddyssen in the house called “Karunahuset”. In the summertime you could find him repair bicycles wearing nothing but an apron outside his bicycle workshop. 

Many remembers him as a very loving man. Jørgen was also a very well educated man – he had a master in politics. He was the very first cashier in Christiania.
