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.
