Commuting by Bike

Spotted an article from some american in Amsterdam (capital of the my country) about bikes. Brought a big smile to my face to see his pictures of biking people and read his suprised comments about our biking habits. Bikes are such a great way to navigate our compact cities!



Snippet:

I really like the picture below showing that this bike has an approved child safety seat, but the child is standing vertically up in it to get a better view. No child helmet, just a child (and mother) who isn't afraid of a little adventure. Remember, this is a busy complicated 3 way intersection with cars whizzing through it and as far as I could tell no clear signs or any clear pattern of traffic, just quick witted and dexterous Amsterdam natives - on bicycles.
