[bkb in the city]

Wow lots of bicycles there

[Ann]

Wow ,,that's lots of bikes ! Nice shot.

[Jen Hudson]

More bikes than Cambridge U.K. Great pov and nice shot of the houses and bridge.

[Jane Morley]

Super shot. My God daughter has just started studying there! She does not have a bicycle though.

[KWind]

My biggest memory of visiting Amsterdam was all the bikes! People said there would be lots but I had no idea until we got there what they really meant!! What a great shot!

[Kitty Hawke]

ooppppsss......that's quite a muddle.....lovely shot.

[bruni]

Now that is amazing. you have more bikes than cars on the road. not here. did the bikes fall over ...how can you find yours in that heap?
wonderful candid picture.

[Bep]

Wat een warboel. Is dit op de Oude Rijn?

[Lindy]

That is quite a mess

[PhotoCrazy]

Wow, wonderful pic!

[mittens (Marilyn)]

I love your title. Excellent shot.

[Sandy]

Lots to look at here, and that's quite a heap of bikes. I wouldn't like mine to be on the bottom of it.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

That is A LOT of bikes! No wonder they're all piled up!

[Carren]

Great title and such an interesting pic.

[Anita Campbell]

Chaos? It surely looks like it...... Interesting shot. We know about the bikes in Holland!! My husband made the mistake of stepping off the curt into a bike lane and almost got killed. I pulled him back just in time.

[Chris K]

oh dear! looks like they went down like dominoes. I nearly got run down by some bikes in Amsterdam too. It was a very unusual sight for us. fav

[Anja]

Nederland fietsland, dat zie je in een studentenstad wel terug!

[Margo]

Interesting shot of a busy city

[Denise Wood]

Terrific capture of those million bikes in the city :)

[Margaret Obey]

Oops, this one made me smile.
Apologies for not commenting recently but there was entertainment every evening; wifi was sporadic in Dorset and the clutch on my car died an honourable death! All back to normal for. Few days so time to catch up.

[Dianne]

Neat image - I posted a shot of bikes a few days ago - the bike tree!

[Dione Giorgio]

You are lucky to have a lot of flat land where bicycles can be used comfortably. Our hilly landscape doesn't allow for biking unless by the fittest. Besides, our roads are all congested with traffic making it dangerous to go out with a bike. Love your shot and title.

[Margaret Brown]

Fabulous, so much detail and things to look at!

[Ivan]

Love those bikes. Thanks for all your super comments and favs.

[Hazel]

Amazing and fabulous and a fav for me - beautiful chaos!!!

[Pyrrhula]

@chimfa If she study in Leiden she soon will. @bruni No problem. They all look different. @gijsje Ja. @aglennc @cruiser In Holland you`ve to take care for bikes . They are declare sacred . @ceilidh I just glad you`re back @dide . Have seen it,a great statue . @sangwann Our hills are the headwind . We always have the wind against us . For that electric powered bikes are very popular in our country
@cruiser @ivan @quietpurplehaze Thanks for the fav.`s Much appreciated .

[Nina Ganci]

that is a lot of bicycles! wow! Wonder how they don't get tangled, or if yours is the one underneath....
brilliant capture
fav

[mervyn hobbs]

I agree.

[Jane Morley]

@pyrrhula I've just found out that I made a mistake. My goddaughter is studying in Groningen , she went to Leiden at the weekend to visit friends.

[Karin Hirsch]

That's Holland bycicles all over the place , a wonderful photo Ferry

[Karin Hirsch]

Congrats on PP

[Elyse Klemchuk]

Oh my goodness! But I like the view from the café past the bicycles, too!

[Kathy]

This looks like a wonderful place to go and it seems everyone who road one of these bikes must be on one of the boats below the bridge. I love your facts and figures. Hollanders really like their bikes.

[Irene]

It looks chaotic, fantastic capture

[Saxa van Eijnsbergen]

This made me smile, so herkenbaar. Ook in Utrecht (waar ik jaren gewoond heb) zoveel fietsen.

[Barb Newcomb]

So many bikes! Great shot.

[Vesna]

I wish that in every country is more bicycles than cars.
