Amsterdam: City of Amsterdam
built 277 days ago
Amsterdam is ... a city of tolerance and diversity. It has all the advantages of a big city: culture, nightlife, international restaurants, good transport - but is quiet, and largely thanks to its canals, has a little road traffic. In Amsterdam your destination is never far away, but get a bike for most authentic experience.

Maybe it's nice to know that the city of Amsterdam once tried to launch a brilliant plan to supply the streets with free bikes. The idea was that you could take one of these 2000 -all white- bikes, use it, and then leave it behind, so that someone else could do the same. This was in 1967 ('course) and it never made it. In 1999 a kind of similar idea did make it, with 250 bikes, but proved unsuccessful.

Amsterdam hail from the city of Liverpool and were formed by poet/songwriter/guitarist/humanist Ian Prowse. The official debut album 'The Journey' was released in 2005 on Beat Crazy Records and spawned a number 32 hit single of the same name.The follow up 'Does this train stop on Merseyside?' reduced the great John Peel to tears on air each time he played it.
