Bicycle Safety

I already posted pictures of all the bikes found in Amsterdam. There are quite so many bikes out in the other cities, but still a lot more compared to the US.


You see this quite often. I thought it was kind of interesting the child in the front isn't strapped in and no one wears helmets.


Here they have a foot strap. Becky I think Jube can ride like that don't you. She'd probably like sitting in front! I can see her pointing the way to go!


In Antwerp we actually did see a few people with bike helmets on. They were the tourists on a bike tour! Here these kids are riding the escalator up from and underground tunnel from the other side of the river. They don't have any bridges in Antwerp.

Looks very safe...I'm sure I would have problems with riding bikes like that....Sorry I missed your call-it came up as unavailable and I don't like to answer those calls. So if you call again I'll know it's you and I'll answer :)

Well well I guess those europeans just don't care about TBI - hah! Jubilee is going to wear her helmet and be buckled in. Period. Although, I'm sure she would like riding on the front better than in the back!
