Two brothers, ages 10 and 6, bike home independently at the end of their school day on this 50-year-old separated cycling infrastructure in a Rotterdam π³π± suburb, just like many generations before them. π§΅1/3

After some time, here is my latest YouTube video on the principles of the Safe System Approach so we can spread awareness of the considerations and foundation to better ensure the safety of everyone: https://t.co/bIAatkqcuJ

40lb bag of dog food, a prescription, and a few groceries, no problem! Bikes can be more useful than some may think and Iβm glad I donβt have to use my car for every trip.

Itβs always a great day for a bike ride, one of my sonβs favorite activities, and a great way to get to the store and back for a few things π

How I would have loved to ride these juvenile sulky tricycles while being serenaded by a brass ensemble in Scheveningen. It's the ultimate Dutch 1963 beach resort experience! π΅π΄ββοΈπ (Photo: Stokvis). Dive deeper into this nostalgic ride: https://t.co/x91GK85Vd9

THIS IS NOT A BIKE. IT IS A TABLE & CHAIR! In π§π·, bikes are expensive due to 70% tax. The Outlaw Bike disguises itself as furniture (12% tax!) and is much cheaper. Now everybody can build their own affordable bike at home! (by @BicyclingMag: https://t.co/esCAWymM9J)

A woman drove a Tesla on the bike path against traffic in Amsterdam and parked on the sidewalk to unload linens. The police summoned enforcement to tow the car. The β¬460 fine seemed too low, with the officer estimating Airbnb nights at β¬1000 each. https://t.co/GiWDJ1bXae

Thanks to the compactness of European towns, a cozy evening out on a beautiful summer night is just a short walk or bike ride away from home. Like lots of people in Maassluis π³π± experience.

On Sunday evening, June 16, at 8:45 PM, I was biking towards the city center of 's-Hertogenbosch π³π± I found myself behind an inline skater who turned the city into his playground... every evening, as he later told me.

It is awesome to see a design I helped with getting put down on the ground! This takes a step in shifting the paradigm towards a Safe System. This has calming elements as well as a two-way separated bike path (though will be black asphalt). Hopefully there will be more to come!

Can you imagine this scenic bike path through the dunes of Westduinpark in The Hague π³π± has existed for over 100 years? Only during WWII, as part of the Atlantikwall, was it unusable. This proves to me that investing in quality cycling infrastructure pays off for generations.

A very warm day in the Netherlands today, saw a lot of groups of school classes out on their bikes with their teachers to attend some outdoor learning / sports activities. A very common sight.
