true, at some points you can't see bikers coming if you're going clockwise. (and yes, on this cycle roundabout you're allowed to go clockwise) (and especially recumbent bicycles)
Houten is #1 cycletown (lol pokemon) in the Netherlands, (maybe Europe/world). Many Engineers go to Houten to learn about its infrastructure. Not only the for bike the infrastructure is amazing, but also for walking and cars.
please, nexttime ANY of you guys (english ppl) come to houten, i'd love to show you the whole town :P by bike! contact me pls if u do, i'd enjoy it ;)
yea, i guess so, i live in houten, and i can say, i usually go everywhere in town by bike, why go by car, it usually takes you even longer! hehe, but ofcourse i'm to young to drive (15) but still :P
Amazing dedication to safe cycling. I like it. Not enough cyclists in the USA for that kind of expenditure. Too much obesity because of lack of safe facilities. Vicious circle.
the DOUCHE has an electric bike WTF although I would love to live there

Houten, cycling capital of the world. Only cycle paths through the city, cars go around it!

Cyclists are using it as a magic roundabout; Houten ought to stripe it as one.

We do have this in the UK in many new towns, such as Stevenage in Hertfordshire, however there are few cyclists using them.
