Currently en route to Delft from Amsterdam to meet with the Dutch Cycling Embassy this afternoon. See you soon!
Utrecht - definitely up there as one of my fav cycling cities. Jam-packed visit yesterday to learn about the city’s #cleanair plans and #cyclingambitions. Thank you Gemeente Utrecht, Fietsersbond and @herbert_tiemens for making my stay such an informative and memorable one!
