Remember when you learned to ride a bicycle? The struggle to keep your balance on 2 wheels and the fear of falling down.

Hi steemians!

I would like to share my love for the best way of transport in Amsterdam.

Flowers do say a lot more than words.

Bicycles are the fastest and easiest way of transport in the heart of Amsterdam. I just love them! Simply because they are clean, easy to park and cycling keeps you fit.
Sometimes it's hard to find your parked iron horse. Especially when it is black. That's why a lot of people pimp their bicycle.

Multitasking to the max

Watching his phone and listening to music (?). "Look Mom, no hands!"

In the background you see the Rijksmuseum and a piece of the landmark iamsterdam. In the middle of the Rijksmuseum is a bicycle lane (behind the T of iamsterdam). It's awesome when you cycle through it and sometimes you can see and hear a street musician.

Bicycle drummers in action

Like these two guys. Not underneath the Rijksmuseum, but in front of a closed store using their bicycle as a drum set. That was such a cool idea!

Bicycle graveyard

And at the end of the day they can end up in the canal. To be fished out after years......

Bicycle recycling

Or turn it into a piece of art.....

Got inspired? Leave the car at home, hop on a bicycle and enjoy the ride!!!
