100 spokes, spinnin’

11 November 2008 No Comment

When I visited Amsterdam as a kid, my mind was blown by the insane number of bikes there. When most people think of Amsterdam,they think of pot and the red light district. I think of it as the city of Bicycles and Butter Cookies. What I mean by butter cookies is actual butter cookies, that’s not slang for smoking weed with a hooker. 

“Bicycle” is the title of a 100-day event (Jun.22 - Oct.5) full of activities and lectures anchored by a central exhibition at the Designhuis in Eindhoven. The exhibition provides a great overview on the variety of two-wheelers designed for sports, transport, showing off… everything! Some 18 million bicycles in the Netherlands make it worth checking out this gallery of Dutch design on wheels.
