Utrecht Netherlands the Dutch city with more bikes than people 🇳🇱

- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2020
- In the Netherlands the bike culture is one of the first things tourist will notice when arriving in the country. Today we are going to explore Utrecht Netherlands by bicycle and see how that can be. The reason I chose Utrecht is because well, it has the worlds biggest bike rack. That is a title that only the Netherlands can hold since everyone loves riding bike around the country.
There's many benefits to riding a bike such as it's more ecological to the environment which must mean the air quality in Dutch cities must be good. You also get exercise and get to experience what being a kid is like again without having to become those hard core bike riders with their Lance Armstrong sportswear.
Anyway I invite you guys to explore the city of Utrecht with me on this bike journey across the Dutch city.

@@geengemekkerrr wat praat jij poep? nederland is en mooi land want ja geen oorlog maar bekijk de huizenmarkt is of nog leuker de politiek en als je het dan nog mooi vind ben je op je achterhoofd gevallen
I just love it when people explore the city more than visiting the regular so called tourist places..the bike ride they took was the most beautiful part about this vlog I guess. #KeepExploring❤️
I agree,, I love doing explore and found hidden spot that usually not much exposed
Ikr! Make me feels like in holiday
exactly! how great...
i agree
Yeah right..
So you enjoyed my hometown! Some tips from a local:
1. You can park your bike for free in the first 24 hours in every bicycle storage in the city.
In the ones at the train station you can borrow a card if you don't have an OV-chipkaart. Ask the employee on site.
2. The bridge at 5:28 is not a dead end. There is a cyclepath on the bridge. It is a shorter route to the historic city center.
Left from the stairs there is a (another) bicycle storage.
3. You are not allowed to cycle on the square at 5:37. There are cyclepaths arround the square. You are not allowed to bike anywhere in the city. It is not allowed to cycle on footpaths and in pedestrian areas, unless the signs say that it is allowed. Also, if there is a cycle path next to the road, you may only use the cycle path and not the road next to it.
4. The rainbow pedestrian crossing at 8:25 is there to draw attention to the diversity and acceptance of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people (LGBT people). The rabbit on the traffic light is Miffy, from a series of children's picture books made by Dick Bruna from Utrecht.
Nice! I have been to Utrecht 2 times to meet freinds long time back. I remember going to restaurants down next to the canals.
Do you have to pay to use bicycle racks after 24 hours? Here in Belgium we park bicycles for free all days. Only at the closed zones ( doors open with 4 digit code), you have to pay, probably once a year. But I should say, the bicycle infrastruture is the best in the Netherlands
@@Mrtribru69 After 24 hours its € 1,25 /day or € 75 /year

Wow cycling was so superb.cycling track even inside the building 😲😲😲😲 nice.even vlogging in a cycle is totally a different experience great.exepecting more of such rides
The Dutch love their bikes and frites!
Usually it is very busy / crowded in the cities and it"s very difficult to maneuver when you are on a bike but these days it's quiet because of covid and you can tour the city at your leisure by bike. Liked the video very much....thanks!!
Nice, relaxed look at a great city. Glad you didn't spend the whole time rushing round all the touristy places.
Wow, I have never seen such a parking place like that one. I am sure it is the best way to explore the city not only that, you'll get to exercise too. Thanks for sharing this travel vlogs for us, keep it up!
This is crazy! And Eco-freindly! Hope more cities becomes like this in the near future.
The whole country is like this
@@Thomas_TdK no it’s not, thank god.
eco-friendly*
@@mlaakie Uh jawel? Overal hebben we fietspaden, veel groen in de dorps- en stadscentra....
Wow! I wanna go there someday to experience that kind of thing. I wanna explore Netherlands together with a ride on a bike.
Yeah come you are welcome🤗
Vidéo 👍😘 super cette petite ballade en vélo... C est bon pour la planète le vélo..........😍
How nice seeing people like this exploring somewhere with a bike ride, it's totally amazing!!!!
There are complete road networks for bikes huh. Amazing. Wish more countries had this.
Love the video! I wish i can visit neatherland too and eat their food. Anyway, If only people use bikes ads their main transportation vehicle then the world would have cleaner air and healthy people
Supernice to see guys! I've never seen that 'worlds biggest bicycle rack' myself. Looks like a cool place to take some tourists to haha😆
You should! 😂
It is indeed a cool place, literally 😁
yeah..i love it too..seems fun ya

You the Man and Sophie is so sweet🙌🏻❤
This is the coolest thing I've ever seen...Here in Alabama we barely have sidewalks let alone bikes. I'd be in Heaven in the Netherlands. ❤️
Such beautiful and amazing country.. I wanna be born here.. May be next time.. 😀😀👌
I love driving bike and this place is so awesome to ride whole day.
What an amazing place .I want to visit this after this pandemic .
Its lovely to see you enjoy the city like that, please do it with other city too!
The colors and decorations the bikes have are really necessary. Imagine you have to find your bike in those big parking garages!
Tip for every tourist that visits The Netherlands: NEVER stop or walk on a bike path, chances are you won't survive it.
The rabbit on the stoplight is Miffy (Nijntje in Dutch). The man who created her was from Utrecht.
9:36 love at first sight 😍😍😍😍. Watch out Carlos you have competition
Hi no one
I'm no one
At 5:28 there isn’t a dead end, at least not for bicycles, just for biking. The steps have a wheel gutter on both sides, so you can walk up the stairs and your bike rides in the gutter. With handbrakes it is easy up and down, with footbreaks you must give counterweight with your body, because you cannot use the breaks, so it’s a bit difficult for some people. Now if you see a gutter on the side of the steps you know where they are used for.
Gr8 to see u both... Love ur videos...
I love biking, I bought one old fashioned bike as a training bike , exactly look just like this one. wow. i cannot stop biking if im there.
Wow so cool beautiful place 😄
9:09 dessert looks very interesting!
Beautiful 😍 love you guys..
looks like fun to traveling with bike, must try it sometimes
Cool video as always mate. Was expecting you to have visited a Dutch barbers and be a video
If you were wondering why that bunny at 8:35 was there at the stoplights, that bunny is called Nijntje, it is a dutch childrens book series and tv series character. I used to read and watch it when I was a kid. I think they put the character at the stoplights to kinda commemorate it or something, not sure but it's pretty cute they did that.
Wooooooow!.......Que increhible.Original video FELICITACIONES.
Gracias
Amazing Vlog 👍👏👏
Great video! I miss Holland.
9:18 the idea for these Sedum roofs is that during heavy rain, they reduce the amount of water that enters the sewage system. Thus reducing the risk of floods during heavy rain. Home owners are also encouraged to use Sedum roofs. (and it is good for catching CO2 and good for polinators as well).
freudsigmund72 and cool in the summer warm in winter
Cool,, Netherlands really accommodated bikers, hope my country doing same,,
So beautiful city 👍👍🙏🙏
Beautiful Netherlands 😍
Great vlog, man !
I like what you are doing.. i love adventure
Wow this city Utrecht is something else.my other favourite blogger is from Utrecht
9:52 "this spot is way outside of the city" haha, that's 10 mins walk from the train station. Maybe Volpe was disoriented from taking all these weird detours.
Btw that spot was once used for loading and unloading ships. Lots of young people hang out there in summer to eat ice cream, read a book. There are also a few places there worth visiting for live music, like EKKO. Unfortunately that scene is dead now because of COVID. The whole city is a ghost town atm, I've never seen it so empty as in this video.
This country is beautiful as Heaven 💜💜
A lot of European countrys,did vote in the 50s,,,for cars.
If you look at those city centers now,its not human friendly anymore.
It could be an oportunity for your country,because you did not do that back in the days.
But to be honest,as a Dutch i hated our anti-car policy back in the 80s.
How litle did i know back then.
I love the Sophie smile
So clean and nice.
Volpe looking osadharon with that haircut 👌😉
Meet herald baldr he is also there

Utrecht is one of the cities where cars or motorised vehicles are taken off certain roads or spaces, even may be made it "car- unfriendly" They give more priority to bicycles. The Dutch bicycle almost everywhere, anytime, no matter storm of winds or rain....they just brave it...and go on. The bicycle infrastructure is one of the best in the world, and rahter safe from traffic.
Here in Belgium as well...people use bicycles a lot, as it is almost a flat country. There are undeground parking racks for bicycles in the town where I live. Now they made much of streets in the town center bike friendly....making it difficult for motorised vehicles to drive in the center.
daamn. That's a lot of bikes lol
Bro I really big fan of you 😊😊
First view sir
Happy belated birthday Carlos.
I think a lot of Netherland people are using bikes. i love that, i always want to use bike to go to work.
cycling exercise makes the body fresh increase immunity in the body, bright mind, body, healthy, looks like the body will restore new stamina, happy thoughts
True
@@VolpeWhereAreYou Yes my friend Welcome to channel Thank you very much my friend
Amazing 😀
The rabbit 8:37 is Nijntje also known as Miffy, the creator Dick Bruna is from the Netherlands.
I would love to go to Netherlands as soon as I can go from America. I have to find out about the daily expend there and should I bring my bicycle or get one there.
Carlos biriyani lover......I am fan of yours from Kolkata....
there is also warung in Netherlands, my country
OOH I Love Travel To Bike In The City
Take a good care bro .. love from Nagaland..
Nice video
I'd like to go there love from Philippines!
i want to visit neitherlands!!
Hey Volpe. Thank for the fantastic travel video. Thanks to u we are getting a peak into post covid travel. U were there in netherlands in 2018 (pre covid). What are the salient differences you are seeing now compared to precovid - travel, accommodation, people, food etc. Thanks in advance brother.
Hotel prices are down a bit, there's ALOT less people too. The Dutch are the least caring out of all the European nations I visited post covid. They are really relaxed about this whole covid situation in terms of wearing a mask in public
@@VolpeWhereAreYou thanks brother
Have a good day mate...
Nice video sir
I'm gonna go ahead and say it, you and sofienator are actually cute sweet couple 😍 God 🙏 bless you guys
