yesterday we were biking home after we had gone to the cinema (this is after 9 in the evening, see how sunny it still is!!) and encountered this sea of bikes. i took some pictures and was disappointed with all of them... but for once i should show you a picture a little further away from the apartment... :) there was some dance festival going on and heres where all the visitors parked. i really like that a simple bike i the main mode of transportation.... but i do have to say i miss the car we had in the usa, it does make life easier at times to have a car... we need some new bookcases and we found cheap ones on the dutch version of craigslist. but no way to get them to our place... :(
people often ask; but how on earth do you find your bike back in this endles sea of others...? i gues its like when you are on the beach and go for a swim. you know approximately where you left your towel, and somehow you always find it back...

I agree it's not convenient, but this sure represents a smaller carbon footprint.
Good grief, that's a lot of bikes!!
The bikes and the city councel are two ennemies at the moment. The parking problem has grown out of proportion and they try to solve it by removing many bikes an bring them to a depot out of the city where you can get it back with a fine!
