If the circumference of the Earth is 24,900 miles and you rode every day, you would circle the Earth in 13.65 years. So, just how many times does the average Hollander do just that?
Bicycles. They are everywhere you look in the Netherlands. The parking lots for bicycles are larger than some car lots in the United States.
Adults, teenagers, children and babies travel via bicycles.
The bike paths are amazing!
Have to go down a flight of stairs? No problem. Bike rails make it easy.
And bikes are not just for transportation.
Oh, to be able to travel this well at home!
Little wonder Europeans get exasperated with Americans lack of bicycle culture. I love the rails! Kay Ostrom
