介绍:
They say if you want to know a man, walk a mile in his shoes. If you want to know an Amsterdam man, probably you’d better ride a mile on his bike. Bikes are a big part of the city’s transportation system. You’ll find them everywhere, such as on the bridge and on the street.
Riding a bike in Amsterdam will give you a taste of local life. It’s easy to hire one or join a bike tour, but before you start your cycling journey, there are a few things you should know.
Due to its flat ground, people here always love cycling. Today, there are more than 400 kilometres of cycle paths making their way through the city.
Amsterdam has done everything it can to make cycling safe. Here are a few tips on cycling safety that should help you guide your way around.
Use the bike way — white lines mark them out with bike symbols in the middle. Use hand signals to turn. Don’t cycle on the footway. Don’t cycle in walking areas. Be careful of tourists on foot as they can often step into bike lanes without noticing you. Avoid rush hours as there are lots of cyclists on the roads and long bike queues.
You can join different bike tours, depending on whether you prefer to pay a visit to the city’s long history and rich cultures, or explore everything from old castles to little villages.
Amsterdam is always worth a visit. The tour is perfect for both experienced and new cyclists at any time of the year.
