Here's something cool I wanted to share 🚲When I visit my mom I'll take a shortcut through the forest and even there we have "dedicated lanes" for cars, cyclists and pedestriansThe only logical exceptions are highways but aisde from that you can get almost anywhere on bike here 🇳🇱 @notjustbikes

@stux @notjustbikes this is a dream. When I tell my friends how cool it is to bike everywhere, they just don't get it. Car is seen as something luxurious and comfortable. To me bike is true freedom. Especially, when I see electric bikes, makes me think it is magic.

@stux I got places by bicycle in the U.S. when I was a teen. I just had to stand being scraped by motor vehicles. And exhaust was much more noxious in the 1970s than it is now! :)

@rominator @notjustbikes It really is indeed! :ed_grin: Especially when the weather is nice, it's just such a pleassure to bike around and take it all itBut it also takes off a huge pressure, when you drop your bike for example the worst thing that could happen is something falls off and you fix it right on the spotWhen in a car and you'll hit something often the costs are enornous and scary

@stux @notjustbikes I wonder, when the weather is bad. It is raining or snowing. Do people completely abandon bikes as a main transport or just wait for rain to stop and then keep going ? Thanks.

@stux @notjustbikes I feel so lucky to live in the Netherlands. Several of my friends would love to move here (but getting a residence permit is hard).

And that makes it easier to take you out with a hunting rifle.
