We used to live in the Netherlands -- everybody bikes. Also, everyone had a bell installed on their bikes, which they would ring at pedestrians who were in the way, or at bikes they were passing, or just the for sheer joy. Very fun. sigh.

I, too, live in Germany - in Frankfurt. I'll echo Bron - the cycling here is great and we're off to Britain next week because it's good there too. You'll be near us , so if you want details about biking here, I'll be glad to give them to you. It would be nice if you could join us on a trip. I just got back from our regular 40k tour on a ridge outside of the city. It's a way dedicated to walkers and cyclists, so there's no traffic - just nature. Nothing could be prettier.
You're never too old!
