Netherlands
Explore cycling routes and upcoming events.
In the Netherlands, a bicycle is useful for the short trips that make up an ordinary day. A closely connected network of cycle paths lets people ride to shops, schools and work, and station bikes make it easier to finish a train journey on two wheels. That usefulness helps explain why cycling is so deeply woven into daily life.
