plan with enable_seqscan off:

Aggregate  (cost=253892.48..253892.49 rows=1 width=0) (actual time=208.681..208.681 rows=1 loops=1)
  ->  Nested Loop  (cost=5.87..253889.49 rows=1198 width=0) (actual time=69.403..208.647 rows=17 loops=1)
        ->  Index Scan using geo_blok_idx on geo g  (cost=0.00..1314.43 rows=500 width=8) (actual time=45.776..46.147 rows=121 loops=1)
              Index Cond: (blok = 1942)
        ->  Bitmap Heap Scan on bmp_data d  (cost=5.87..502.91 rows=179 width=8) (actual time=1.340..1.341 rows=0 loops=121)
              Recheck Cond: (geo_id = g.geo_id)
              ->  Bitmap Index Scan on bmp_data_geo_idx  (cost=0.00..5.82 rows=179 width=0) (actual time=1.206..1.206 rows=0 loops=121)
                    Index Cond: (geo_id = g.geo_id)
Total runtime: 208.850 ms

How much RAM you have on this machine?
What else is this machine is being used for (besides being db server)?
And, what is your setting for effective_cache_size?  It looks like you didn't change it from default (128MB).
You need to adjust effective_cache_size so somewhat between 60%-75% of RAM, if the database is the main process running on this machine.

Again, effective_cache_size could be set on session level, so you could try it before changing GUC in postgresql.conf.
When trying it, don't forget to change enable_seqscan back to "on" (if it's still "off").
