A rubbish bin for cyclists on the move. This is on a cycle-path near a school in Assen. Making throwing rubbish into a bin into a "fun" thing to do probably helps to avoid litter. The bin is called a "blikvanger". This usually means "eye ... [more]
The centre of Hoogeveen. Post war reconstruction rebuilt this area on American lines as a wide boulevard for cars. Now it's a much more pleasant, more liveable space. Watch the video to see more. A similar example from Nijmegen can ... [more]
Cyclists' Brack: === Simon, Nigel, Clare and I have decided to constitute ourselves an informal cake research subgroup. At the time we were sampling an Irish brack or tea-cake (so called because it's made with tea, not for tea) which my m ... [more]
A ramp with an intelligently placed cycle wheeling channel leading to a bike parking area on top of a Connexions boat taxi in Amsterdam harbour. This boat shuttles up and down the North Sea canal - so another facet of amazing Dutch integra ... [more]

Cycles Left by this Ashtray Will Be Removed - UEA has an walkway above the road/cycling level.
Cycleway along Hanover Way. Good: Plenty of space. Pedestrian side is away from the road so more pleasant for walkers - however it is possible for cyclists to veer round peds in the cycleway if they need to.
Never an excuse not to use lights at night in Amsterdam but plenty (and I mean plénty) do. This vending machine is stocked with simple university-branded white and red LED lights - I assume they'd be called 'lichtjes' in Dutch.
Two recharging stations at the bicycle parking in front of the "EWE Forum" at the "Alte Fleiwa" in Oldenburg. The electric car a registered and road going trial built in colaboration with Karmann to test electric cars suitability as electri ... [more]

Nice wide area for waiting for the lights in, as one crosses Mr Treublaan, Amsterdam. One can queue (not that the Dutch tend to queue) two bicycles deep without blocking the cycleway in the very foreground.
national route 76 round the forth has many challenging cunningly concealed steep climbs from the shore away from installations or closed off areas. This is an excellent cyclepath.

See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uX4vA4Og2I I can imagine loads of car drivers gently discombobulating about this clip and seeing cyclists do this. However, I believe I've done nothing wrong here. First, I see the lights a ... [more]
