Cycling in Amsterdam

I've already mentioned that there are almost more bikes in Amsterdam than people. Everywhere one goes there are piles of bikes being ridden or stored (parked) in masses. Neil and I hired bikes for one afternoon last week and rode all over the city. At the interchange between the central station and the ferry terminal I saw my first ever two-tier bike park absolutely crammed with machines (pictured).



I also attach a picture of me on my bike in front of where we were staying. Psst.... That's not my hotel. It's another residence in Dam Square in the heart of the city ... something to do with the royal family.
