Properties

Rotterdam's Europe's best city for cycling! No more no less. Perfect conditions for bikers in the traffic with bike paths, bike traffic lights, bike bridges, bike parking, ramps and almost allwhere cycling against one-way direction is allowed. Broad bikelanes with red tarmac and superb signposting does it very easy to bike. Plus the numbers of bikers are high, but not stunning and very few mopeds on the bikelanes.

Remarks

The third rest day of five is placed between the second and the third and last two-day stretch to Amsterdam.
