    Biked to work today - usual downsides.

    No dedicated cycle lanes or too narrow cycle lanes.

    Broken glass on paths or roads not removed by the corporation.

    Dangerous ill thought out junctions (HRI, Albert Ave etc)

    Endemic thieving light fingered ****s mean security is a constant battle.


    Lastly, the ****ing wind. I know they have wndmills in NL but do they get the strong winds we regularly do?

    For a minute I thought this was the missing verse from the message by grandmaster flash and the furious five.

    That's all well and good until you want to walk somewhere. I was in Delft not so long ago, ****ing madness bicycles coming at me from all directions.
