Weather

Mostly overcast with a few sunny spells in between. Dry weather all day long. Moderate wind from the South, so still a tailwind, but much less than the previous day.

Accommodation

The Bicycle Hotel
van Ostadestraat 123
NL-1072 SV Amsterdam

Properties

Again fine tarmac bike paths through the flat polder landscape med very fine (knotpoint)signposting. Once we missed a canal bridge and had to to back a short way. The last half we cycled on a road with bike lanes on the shoulder along the river Amstel, which we also crossed on a bike ferry. Good bike paths into Amsterdam.

Remarks

The last stage of this year's bike holiday and we have thus reached our final destination - Amsterdam. The new stage destination yesterday meant it grew a little longer. But still contained the detour into Leiden.
