Why Bicycles Became a Big Part of Dutch Culture
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 авг 2024
- As a Dutchie, I know cycling is a huge part of our culture. We have more bicycles than people in The Netherlands! That's kinda crazy... But The Netherlands wasn't always bicycle heaven. I thought it would be interesting to dive deeper in the history of cycling in The Netherlands.
Who wouldn't want to know why we have more bikes than people, right?

8:50 "Don't do as Dutch people do, they are officially crazy." I could say the same about New Yorkers. But since New York was originally Dutch this suddenly makes sense.
New york was originally Indian Aboriginals, the dutch came there and K!lled children there and burned towns down while the civilians where sleeping, and then the dutch gave New York away because they were scared off United States Americans
Wow never thougt of that
dont worry the dutchies were expunged after the takover.
so your craziness is oficially your own.

New Amsterdam was settled by the Dutch and it was a beautiful and fruitful city. Then the English took it from them and created the frothing toilet that’s it’s become today.
I’m in the Netherlands right now and loving how legitimately cycling is treated as a form of transportation. 10/10, would recommend.
Insane to me that it isn't treated as such in most places!
3/10 seems more appropriate. Haven't you noticed all the cars around you? We could do a lot better.
@@HarpsichordVinylGallery There’s always room for improvement. But coming from North America, I mostly just feel jealousy 😂
@@humanecities The man in the opening picture to the right is a symbol. He is the prime minister and part of the political party VVD, which is the protagonist of automobiles. This is just image building how he sits on a bike. You cannot win any election without the vote of owners of cars it must be the local government of the city of Amsterdam where cars are blocked more and more because it has a left local government and the city is that old that you cannot allow cars everywhere in town.
I can imagine the US must be hell compared to The Netherlands.
@@HarpsichordVinylGallery If the Netherlands is 3/10, then the US is -∞/10
Er zijn inmiddels ontelbaar veel video’s te vinden over de Nederlandse fietscultuur. En toch is het je gelukt om er eentje te maken die iets toevoegt, van hoge kwaliteit is en uitgebalanceerd en informatief. Een mooie prestatie‼️😃👍
Wow dankjewel! Ik had nooit durven dromen dat deze video zoveel positieve feedback zou krijgen, bizar!
dat klopt
feels like im in one of those echo chambers because the most liked comment is written in dutch XD do fully agree with your point though
@@jedu_youtube dat stukje over Wilhelmina had ik nog nooit gehoord, en ik wel 100 van dit soort filmpjes voorbij zien komen
When I was in Amsterdam last summer I planned a trip on bike from Amsterdam West to Zaandam to see the mills and a bit of the country side. Fair to say I overestimated my stamina. It was funny to see how I was struggling to keep pace already mid journey while the elders passed me by unbothered. Didn't help that all previous days of my visit it was relatively chill weather (I come from the Dominican Republic, anything below 24 is "cold" for me) so I wore a heavy sweater but right on that day the sun was fully out with 30 degrees Celsius. Awesome experience though, can't wait to visit again!
Most of the elders have E-Bikes nowadays, so don't feel too bad! 😛
@@jedu_youtube Not only elders use an E-bike.
I'm 33 years. And I use an E-bike myself. It can be to pull a 35kg bike trailer or, I have to test a specific E-bike.
When i'm not working I ride a regular NOT Electrical bike. Sometimes I get an E-bike I have to test and will ride that E-bike in my own time.
the elders in the netherlands all ride electric so thats the reason
@@jedu_youtube Be positive but don't embellish: it's about half the elders according to the RIVM. ps Hospitals are not happy with this (complicated fractures)
If you had cycled at your own pace, it would probably have been a more pleasurable experience. Who cares whether it takes you one hour or two hours to get there?
Be prepared nex time: in the netherland we swear by layering clothes as you never know what the weather will be ( tshirt, sweater, raincoat), and something to eat and drink in your backpack.
What a bike gave me as a child was a amount of freedom that made the big world manageable. I could bike everywhere, to friends, family, local sportclub excetra. Having a bike as a child turns your world into collour. It taught me to be responsible, be home on time, let my parents know where I was and where I was going. I remember my dad giving me a quarter for the at the time still available public phone booths of the KPN so I could call home incase something happened with my bike, my household phone number being on a small metal plate my dad bolted to my bike himself incase I forgot.
Even now years later with a car and a motorcycle, everything under 5 - 10km I do on my bike if I got the time to do so.
I think Not just bikes has a video on this as well. It's really great to not be dependent on your parents to go to your sports club, to a friends house or to school. Also I think for most teens the bicycle trip to school where you wait for your friends at certain crossroads was a staple in their teen years. I know it was in mine, lol.
Oprecht een fantastische video. Ook al ben ik Nederlands, ik heb nog steeds iets geleerd van de video. Fantastisch werk
Dankjewel! Nooit gedacht dat deze video zo goed ontvangen zou worden!
As a cyclist and visitor there: the Dutch are big people, and, as Jedu says, really accustomed to getting around on bikes, so you need to watch out and learn what all those pavement textures mean and be aware of all the large vehicles zipping around. To an American it is remarkable to hear how European local governments have been deliberately changing their cities from car- to bike- friendly places. Our governments work to placate the auto industry and keep people out of the way of the cars.
The Dutch are actually tall ... not 'big' :) The tallest people on avarage in the world. Also the Dutch are actually one of the healthiest and thinnest people with the lowest rates of obesity in the world. I am Dutch and when we went on holliday in Florida in the 90s we were shocked at the amount of gigantic (!!!) fat people we saw there. That kind of obesity I didn't even know existed as I had had never seen anyone remotely as fat as them in The Netherlands.
This is a well-executed video!! As an Indonesian who studies in the Netherlands somehow, I kinda relate to the bike culture since a lot of Indonesian also ride a bike since they're very young. So when I am coming to the Netherlands and brought a bike I have no struggle and even can do the Dutch way such as not using any hand, and bringing big things such as a suitcase, fan, box, groceries, etc hahaha
I hope we can also have bicycle culture back in Indonesia. The traffic in Indonesia now is like North America, but with motorcycles, and WAY more chaos.
@@tadawakatsu You can have the bycicle culture back if you change your name to Dutch East Indies again, that should do the trick.
Jk plz don't kill me I was just joking 😅
As an American expat in Holland I love the infrastructure here not only for cycling but also how the cities are built to be lived in. You can't LIVE in a city built for cars. I love cycling now, learned a few months ago and now I cycle to work every day even in the snow or in a storm. The only trouble I had is my second hand bike needs new tires and I was too inexperienced to see that I was riding on a flat which is why I was struggling so much at the start.
Wow impressive that you only learned recently and are already cycling to work! That's great! A skill you will never forget :)
I bet your workplace has a bicycle pump behind the desk somewhere, so if you do find yourself riding flat you can always ask if you can borrow one :)
I’m from the uk and have camped and caravanned in the Netherlands and I think it’s great the way we cycled from camp sites into towns and villages in complete safety from cars, vans and heavy goods vehicles. In my mid 70s now and still cycling but here in the UK local and government authorities just pay lip service to the needs of cyclists.
It's my third week in Rotterdam. I just arrived in the Netherlands & it's beautiful to see how much biking is prioritised here.
The Dutchies are really amazing and nice people & I'm glad to have found this channel
Great video. I'm stuck in a bad weather, hilly terrain, car dominated location. Happily they moved my workplace to a location I can bike to on a great trail (30 km per day) and have been doing so 10 months of the year ever since.
Yeah not all countries are made for bicycles hehe. But hey at least you got a nice trail! We got some in The Netherlands, but without hilly terrain they're hard to find!
I 🇳🇱 am happy for you👍👍Enjoy your bike-life.
@@lbergen001 I am, anything to get more time outdoors and out of the car is good with me
there's no bad weather, only bad clothing
@@ashchbkv6965 On January 20th I went outside on a foggy morning, checked for ice near the door and was just wet (was around freezing point). At the end of the driveway it turned to a ultra thin layer of ice. Bike slid out from under me and I went down hard on bare concrete with my right knee. Pulverized the outer surface of my knee cap but the joint was unhurt (thankfully). Not sure how to dress for that weather type? lol
A map of bycicle roads in europe always brings a smile that the Netherlands and Belgium (Mostly Flanders) is a bike heaven.
i'm a fellow dutchie but not from a big city, i'd say my town has less than 5k people, but still had to cycle to my lil school. when i went to high school that changed to cycling 2 hours a day and hoping to find your bike at the end of school day among the couple hundred others. yet when i went to amsterdam by myself i was still shocked at the amount of bikes but found no trouble dodging them or anything, it were the damn trams that nearly hit me whenever i tried to cross😭😭
I live in a small village. Cycling to work and doing grocery is easy because the road isn't crowded by vehicles and other bicycles. However when I cycled in bigger cities, the chaos made me a bit nervous.
I’m staring at my bike as I’m watching this video. We both want to be there in Netherlands.
As an American "cyclist" I try to take my kid to school by bike when I can. I've been to Amsterdam about 20 years ago, and it was crazy. I recently went to Belgium (Flanders). It's almost as good as the Netherlands...
Btw both of my kids could pedal at the age of 4. (Proud dad).
Thanks for your content! Ride on 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿🚵🏿♂️🍻
Thank you :) Cycle on! 💪
I was a doctoral student in the Netherlands (Radboud Universiteit, Nijmegen). I loved cycling everywhere! I still have my voufiets (Brompton folding bike) here in Cape Town. I would ride everywhere, and for long journeys, I would fold my bike and catch a bus or a train! I wish I could do that here in Cape Town. Sadly, we don’t have a cycle commuting culture, only sports cycling.
It's not even really a culture here in the Netherlands. It's just that cycling is treated as just as viable an option for travel as a car is. It's just another form of transport, not a specific culture you inadvertently "join". I guess it's one of the perks of being such a small country. As you really can get anywhere on just a bicycle.
@@Sanquinity I don't get (or ever will) this "small country" argument, it makes no sense.
It's not like you live in Haarlem, work in Delfzijl and bike for groceries in Maastricht on a daily basis, is it?
Door fietsen werd ik heel erg benieuwd en geïnteresseerd in Nederland, en vervolgens de Nederlandse taal. Ik hou van fietsen, maar er zijn geen leuken plekken dichbij om naartoe of doorheen te fietsen. We moeten de fietsen met de auto meenemen naar en park ofzo om gewoon te genieten van het fietsen. Gek hoor. Ik heb Nederland vast in m'n ooghoekje.
Je hebt zelf Nederlands geleerd? Wat goed!
Waar kom je vandaan?

@@ebryan1990 If you want a bike vacation I would recommend Utrecht.
@@Turnil321 tbh you better of in the provice of drenten or gelderland lots of open fields and nice country side if you want to stay in urban area go to randstad and take utercht also with it
It would be so amazing if the USA adopted a more bicycle based transportation system. I do many of my commutes with the e-bike in my picture.
How are the distances in the USA? Is it doable by bicycle?
@@jedu_youtube I can get to my job by e-bike in 1 hour 15 minutes. It is 24 miles (39 km) one way. Once there, simply recharge the battery for the return trip home. What we lack is dedicated bicycle lanes, so it is very dangerous. I wear very bright yellow clothes, the bike has reflectors and lights everywhere, and I don't use the bike on less than ideal riding days.
I am not sure if that would work because of the size of the USA
From what I’ve heard places are much farther away compared to The Netherlands
@@jedu_youtube The distances are doable in the cities here in the US. For example, I live in Hollywood, California, and if I wanted to ride to, oh let's be posh and say Beverly Hills, it is 7 miles/11Km. Most of the ride would be on Santa Monica Boulevard, and part of that street has bike lanes - mostly in West Hollywood and Beverly Hills. Not nearly as nice as anywhere I've visited in the Netherlands, though. But it has improved here, and slowly getting better. From here to the beach is about the same as going from Amsterdam to Leiden, but not nearly as good to ride!
I owned two bikes when I lived in Holland. One in Utrecht for going to the train, then another for Amsterdam train station to work. Such a great way to travel, even on snow.
Utrecht is not a part of Holland, though.
@@hanneklapwijk8354 well, it's not haha
@@hanneklapwijk8354 you're correct, but Utrecht is located in Utrecht, not in Holland.
Really well put together video! I am Dutch myself but never really heard the full story of how bicycles became such a part of the culture. Crazy to think that it was once banned because of it's danger
I'm Dutch and for art class we were literally expected to take 1 by 1,5 meter plastic maps home by bike at the end of the year!
Im from Germany and I thought in the Netherlands there are some really good cycle pathts but the cycling infrastructure ist great everwhere. I often visit the Netherlands now. Very modern, beautiful and friendly country.
I was riding at age 5 without training wheels, so I'm up there with the Dutch. Yay for me.
Love the new recording format, keep it up
During the European soccer championship in 1984 in Germany we played the semi final against Germany in Hamburg. Between the supporters there was a big sign “ Opa, ik heb je fiets gevonden!” (Grandpa, I recovered your bicycle!)
Goed gedaan man! Dit is een leuke, grappige en informatieve video en ook nog eens een zeer knap staaltje editing!
Not enough views for a video that good!
Thanks! Means a lot!
This is a well-thought out and assembled video. I’ve been following Bicycle Dutch and other Dutch vloggers which is probably why you/yours showed up in my stream. Grateful. I live on a hilly island in the US and recently bought what I call an E-omafiet so I can cycle more (and when need to use our EV when necessary). Keep gifting us more videos.
@@draw1951 Omafietsen are the best! I mean what dude would want to come crashing down into that top metal tube at full speed... I'm getting sympathetic pain in the groin already!
love the pictures and videos of dutch people doing crazy stuff on their bikes, even had to pause and rewind :D
It could've been me on those pictures. You don't want to know how many IKEA pieces I've transported on my bicycle 😅
Loved your writing, video, and editing. Can't wait to see more!

I absolutely love your sense of humour! I didn't click on this video expecting a laugh but that's certainly what I got, it's great.
Great to hear. It's always a balance between funny and informational! Good to hear I'm on the right path!
hey man echt een goed video, de mix van praten muziek en korte videos en plaatjes werk echt goed.
wat een kwaliteit voor zo'n klein kanaal
My biggest takeaway from this video: nobody is wearing a helmet! My country’s trying to increase bike use but we have mandatory helmet laws, hilly cities established car culture and limited bike paths.
That's actually something I completely forgot to mention in the video! Would've been a nice fact indeed. We don't have helmet laws for bikes, and I don't think people would accept it if they ever tried to push it through
I used to cycle in a car-infested city where I received death threats from cars on weekly basis. Here in Groningen I never needed a helmet in years.
The flip side of the unrestricted helmetlaws is the upcoming use of e-bikes which go way faster than regular bikes. Seeing as mostly elderly persons use e-bikes as it makes biking more accessible with physical limitations, we have seen an increase in bike fatalities and brain trauma. Traumasurgeons are pleading for tightened helmetlaws especially for e-bikes.
I have seen helmets on elderly dutch people and elementary school kids. But yeah the roads are very safe and ppl in cars also ride bikes so they know what it is to be on a bike so they are careful. Also, in an accident with a car and a bike, the person in the car is almost always legally at fault. That’s another reason to be careful with bike riders.
@@Peacefrogg You're right, also don't quote me on this but I believe in the Netherlands the bike is probably the safest way to get around considering the number of serious accidents per travelled km. People do fall of their bikes sometimes but you're more likely to end up with some bruises and a bit sore than anything else. I myself have yet to meet a Dutch person who has been permanently hurt in a bike accident.
Mooie video man! zeer hoge kwaliteit, ga zeker je volgende video kijken!
What a cool video, you even told me things that I, as a "cheese head", don't know. But you actually forgot one thing to mention that is also actually quite unique to our little bicycle country. Kids here in the Netherlands get traffic lessons at school and when they are 11/12 years old and in 'group 7 and 8' (last years of middle school in the US) must undergo a traffic exam, one part theory and one part practical. The practical exam is a bicycle exam, you must ride a route on your bike and official people from the Dutch organisation for traffic safety stand, unnoticed, on the route to make notes as whether they know the traffic rules, behave safely and responsibly on the road and whether they can respond well on unexpected traffic situations. I know that I was very nervous when I had my exam but the prove that I pass lies, after 33 years, stil in my memory box!
These kids pass by my house as well, and I wonder if they are getting a pass grade or something?
Excellent video: comprehensive, informative, and entertaining. 👍🏻🚲

Geweldige video! 🙌
Such a good video, needs more recognition for sure
Don't forget that the spaces reserved for automobiles and roads for cars are a lot, and I mean a lot more, than for bicycles with such a dense population. Although the city of Amsterdam is trying to change that. The problem is that more people in the Netherlands like automobiles than bicycles, unfortunately and behaviour and an attitude are hard to change.
Wat een leuke en informatieve video ❤❤
Short and sweet, couldn't be more to the point, en orgineel gedaan in dit woud van fiets videos 😎

Great video!!
Nice video. Keep up the good work 🎉🎉
What a nice video, well done! I grew up in the Netherlands, so to me it was never special to ride a bike, everyone did so. Untill on RUclips I saw the reactions of people from other countries, the US in particular. I never realised how well designed a great deal of our country is to cycling, and that it has been a deliberate choice at one point. I just took it for granted. Now I live in Groningen, where cyclists cross at the same time at many junctions and I really hate that. It goes well most of the times, I believe that, but it makes me really nervous, because I don't ride so fast.
interesting facts, good work!!!
great video broer!
As a fellow Dutchie and ex bike rental employee, I can ride 3 bikes at the same time. Also around corners. Stopping can a bit tricky though.

Great video! Lived in Groningen for 6 years
mooie video man 👍
Dit is de perfecte video over onze fietscultuur, zonder twijfels.
4:06 May 10, 1940: the attack started at 3:55 AM by the way, not PM. Otherwise great video. It is good for Dutchies to know that out bicycle culture is not normal, has grown because of particular policies. But I also hope that other cities in Europe and the world are willing to learn: it is possible to make lovely walkable bikable healthy cities. Bikes van transform societies!
Oh no! I must've messed up the AM/PM. Thank you!
Nice Video with good Information!!😀
I'm going to visit family in the Netherlands next year and I'm super hyped to ride everywhere haha
We have a lot to learn from this!
Great video

Good video, hope we'll get something like this in Paris
wauw love your video :) nieuwe subscriber erbij :D
That's awesome! I am contemplating biking some, where I am in the US. There are bike lanes adjacent to the roadways but painted lines aren't much protection! Also, at destinations where I would go, there are few places to even lock up a bike! I've been reviewing eBikes, as, we do have hills here and I'm older now...Gazelle seems to be a top brand! Also folding bikes. Still researching. No wonder The Netherlands is one of the happiest populations!
Electric bikes sure are nice! I still remember the days I had to cycle all the way to school against heavy wind.. An electric bike would've been nice there hehe
6:56 It's Groningen! it's the Grote Markt heck yeah AND it's during the fare! The place shown has seen massive construction and was now converted into a purely pedestrian and biking area.
I'm studying here for about 3 years now, coming from germany literally 3h away, and i'm enjoying my time here so much, the biking experience being a big part of it.
Fun fact: old dutch bike are still present in indonesia. Especially old people who use them in farm.
Beautiful. I’m writing from New York City, and I hope to make it to the Netherlands one day, because I spend a lot of time on my bike. I knew the story you just told, and you tell it beautifully.
Thank you so much!
The car density in the Netherlands is 525 per 1000 inhabitants in New York 230 per 1000.
@@andreasblohm9173 You're comparing a country (including remote areas) to a city?
Besides, owning a car doesn't stop the Dutch from cycling on a daily basis.

Heel nice, dankjewel! :p
Imagine a country that makes meaningful changes after a large number of children are killed from preventable causes.
I do think it's important to note that the reason cycling is as common as it is here is in large part due to government policy and road design instead of just the weather and how flat our country is. Many areas in the US have better weather and just as flat a terrain as in the Netherlands yet I would never bike there due to how dangerous the roads are.
This is correct. Weather is actually not of much influence on frequency of cycling (as Dutch prove with the rain or Finnish with the cold), good infrastructure is the most significant predictor of cycling frequency.
Extremly well produced!
