Well maybe. For use by Dutch hospitality staff, athetes, etc. There's a struggle right now that the Canadian govn't wants to charge the typical import tax because after the Olympics here, they will all be donated to a local charity.

This block of bikes will not be far from our home.
For now, am enjoying our relatively peaceful rides.

Actually lots of bike-related stories related to upcoming Winter Olympics. But will spare you the details.

Good luck up there. Get ready for every sort of scandal.

We left town for the 2002 games.
