The Dutch Bicycle in Nijmegen.

They even have a couple hills in this part of the country. Doesn't stop anyone biking. The NL is a nation on (2) wheels. The classic Dutch cycle is an Omafiets or Opafiets---this isn't a make of bike, but a type of classic bike, in (oma)female (grandama) and male (grandpa) versions. Also known as a 'sit up and beg' bike, which is more or less the position of the rider. Gotta keep your head up, biking in Holland. Lots of traffic, no helmets, but bikes rule, and bike paths are basically everywhere.
