Has anyone been? Any specific advice, suggestions, or even questions for me to investigate?</p> <p>This year I'm going to take it as read that using a bike will be easy. The kids (early teenage) had no issues coping with Amsterdam - even the busiest bits - and we have a pretty good idea what to expect and how to behave sensibly in heavy (bicycle) traffic. And this year rather then planning to do a bicycle trip day or two as such we're just going to get hold of bikes for a full week and use them just to get around.</p> <p>So... anything specific to see (whether infrastructure related or just something nice), anywhere for a longer relaxed out-of-town trip, any recommendations on bike hire? The kids are interested in the infrastructure too by the way... sad but true. Difficult to come away from Amsterdam without being amazed and intrigued by this. </p>
