So remember that bike I was telling you about? Well I got to Rotterdam with it. It really is a clunker, and it sucks that its got an internal deraileur and breaks so I don't know how to fix them. It made it tho, and it should get me to Amsterdam in a couple days if it doesn't get stolen in the mean time.
The ride was very interesting. I gave myself like 6 days to get to Amsterdam. I could have done it in 2. So I'm spending a few days in Rotterdam. Along the way you notice things. Like how the entire North Sea coast line is like Wasaga beach. There's cafe's and restaurants and beach bums and wind surfers and change rooms and bars and towns along the way. Like the WHOLE way from the Belgian border to the suburbs of Rotterdam. I guess that's what you get when you cram 16 million people into a space half the size of New Brunswick.
It was really cool riding accross the Schelt. It was epic riding on the massive storm surge barriers along huge wind turbines with dozens of kite boarders ripping around on the sea.
Tunrs out Rotterdam is the 1st Annual Youth Capital of Europe. There's events all weenend, like a skateboard/BMX competition and some kamping festival, on top of regular museum trips and blundering around. So cool weekend lined up.
