All my life I’ve been hearing great things about the Netherlands – about how it is a cycling paradise. And it’s true. The Netherlands does have tons and tons of bike paths. But I also found cycling in the Netherlands to be somewhat boring

The Netherlands is flat, which is fun for a while, but gets a little boring after several days. Even though I appreciate cycling on dedicated bike paths on occasion, I think cycling on them all the time takes some of the adventure out of your travels.
My biggest regret about being in the Netherlands is that I did not go to Amsterdam, but opted instead to go to Utrecht. Utrecht was nice, but the next time I am in the Netherlands I’d like to go and see the capital city.
