When traveling in Europe a refreshing sight was the way people got around. Yes, there are cars and motor cycles but what was most astonishing is the amount of bicycles on the road. And what’s even more surprising is the way they dress while riding bikes. Here in the US we see avid riders in sportswear. But in Europe, Amsterdam especially, it is common to see women in dress and heeled boots zigzagging around town like it’s a fashion statement. So I dedicated this post to thousands of bicycles and the people who embrace this way of getting around.
