Portland, Organ recently introduced these new bike lane boxes. Pat on the back Portland! I don't have a car and rely heavily on biking to get around. Looks like Portland is my kind of town.
Amsterdam however, is not. Not only is this bike lane incredibly narrow, but it's also along a canal. I wouldn't last two pedals.

That Amsterdam photo is hilarious! They say they pull hundreds of bikes out of the canals each year. With bike lanes like that, it's not surprising!
The thing in Amsterdam is that they don't need bike lanes. The bikes rule the road. I was more afraid of the bikes than the cars when I was there.
Sara Christine - that's hilarious! thanks for sharing that tid-bit. I'm not surprised either.
comoprozac - I've actually heard that. So really, maybe Amsterdam is my kind of town. I think I'd just need to improve my biking/balancing skills. Also, very jealous you've been. I'm living in Prague this summer and debating whether to head that way. Suggestions?
Balance is the trick to that bike lane.
