Volendam-Edam Circuit

Went out for a quick ride when in Holland. Really impressed by the quality of the cycle paths - well-maintained tarmac, and yet are offset from the roads themselves. Felt absolutely safe yet was able to tear along at speeds of up to 30km/h (which is fast for me!). The only frustrating thing was that on those roads where cycle paths do exist, cyclists are obliged to use the paths and are prohibited from using the actual carriageway - but I guess from a driver's perspective this is a good thing.

The overall average speed is brought down because I spent a while tootling around Edam. Lovely little town which we visited later that day.

Bloody windy riding next to that dyke.
