I rode a Dutch bicycle today. So I became a part of the crazy traffic of Utrecht. Benjamin lent me his bike and I had the opportunity to fly free through one of the biggest boulevards ’round the city. And that’s where hell began.
Cause everybody here prefers riding a bicycle than driving a car. That’s the reason they don’t have traffic jams here and no parking problems. In fact, they have parking problems – they don’t have enough place to park their bikes. If you walk arround you can easily see bikes all arround you – even in the canals.
And it feels like no biker here respects pedestrians – if you go on the bike alley, they just start beeping and don’t even decrease their speed. They are even worse than the car drivers. But nobody’s worse than the bus drivers. Let’s not talk about it however.
I’ll try it again tomorrow. Hope I’ll survive. If I don’t come back to Bulgaria you should know some bad bike had hit me.
