Is there a specific route or trail you want to hit up this summer? A distance or fitness goal of some sort? Planning a bicycle tour? Bikepacking?

Please share, I'm curious to see what all of you are getting up to for this summer!

Fair warning, cycling in central Amsterdam is a total shitshow. There's tourists everywhere who have no idea how bike paths work, so you have to be paying close attention the whole time not to hit anyone. That said, I've been living in the Netherlands for the past few months and it has really been fantastic cycling everywhere, once you get out of the touristy old-town areas the infrastructure is just amazing. Enjoy your trip!

I’ll be near Watergaang which is a ways out of downtown but I’ll heed your advice since I’ll be one of those tourists 😎 I’d like to think I know how bike paths work though.
