I was a bit ignorant of this...I didnt know most Dutch people bicycle to get around until I applied for my year abroad program and found out my host family was lending me a bike...I was confused for a bit lol...I really wish america was like this
Thank you very much for uploading this video! Very informative! I hope every country in the world will realize the practicality and sense of its people using the bicycle as the chief mode of transport from point A to B. Somehow, the Dutch got it right.
@antonyhilliard sorry to break it to you... but that was a group of Belgian cyclists...(Belgium is less than 40km from 's-Hertogenbosch, so they came cycling)
Ik ben onlangs naar de VS verhuisd. Ik woon hier nu 7 maanden en ik mis Nederlands en het fietsen zooooo erg! Het is heel lastig om hier te fietsen aangezien er geen fietspaden zijn en automobilisten fietsers niet verwachten. Het is dus eigenlijk heel gevaarlijk.. daarbij als ik naar de supermarkt wil moet ik over de snelweg en dan gaat fietsen zo lastig :( Terwijl het weer hier veel beter is om in te fietsen.. blegh ik mis het! haha
Heel erg bedankt voor deze videos. Dit is absoluut je beste!
"Women cycle slightly more often then men". That is very interesting. Here in Australia, by far the majority of cyclists are male. Most trips are for recreation or sport. It is just moronic here. Only 1% of trips are by bike.
Amazing video! This is among the best of your videos in my opinion, but of course they are all so wonderful. Thank you for your continual sharing of how the Dutch succeed, dispelling the excuses people make for low levels of cycling, the history lessons, explaining infrastructure, showing bicycles in Dutch culture... Thank you very much!

Most cities are an ugly dangerous mess because of cars. This is not necessary, as this video shows. Thanks!

The worst place to cycle is probably London with its ultra-narrow lanes and some unfriendly drivers.

nice to see proper bicycyles instead of these big heavy mountain bikes people use in the uk just to go a straight road
