About This Item

A few years back I worked on a project in Amsterdam and was amazed by the number of bicycles on the road and attached (locked) to every possible vertical post, fence and tree. The bicycles are rather plan by US standards. I'm was told by a local that the junkies continiously steal them - and sell them to people whose bikes were stolen. As a result, no one wants to buy a fancy bicycle!

Hopefully the fate of this geocoin will be better than that of bicycles in Amsterdam and it will be able to roll along from cache to cache. Please log this geocoin when you find it and don't forget to mark it as dropped when it goes back into a cache. This geocoin has an extra feature. When you log it as found in the travelbug section of geocaching.com, a special icon will appear in the user stats section of your profile.

If you bring it to an event, feel free to show it around for others to discover. But please, make sure that it leaves with another cacher.

Picked this coin up at the beginning of our ride on the Cape Cod Rail trail while camping on Cape Cod. Took him all the way to the end in Wellfleet and then back (22 miles round trip). Will find a suitable cache to leave him in soon. We happened to be in Amsterdam last fall and enjoyed all the bikes there, so it's fun for us to find this Netherlands Bicycling geocoin!

Discovered it. Those who can more correctly solve the cache algorithm deserve a chance to grab it and move it on.
