This is what it's like to ride a dyke. I've ridden in 13 countries, and The Netherlands has got the most extensive network of bike paths that I've been to. The highlight for me was the section from Westkapelle to IJmuiden. (no I'm not making these names up). Most of the bike paths aren't just a line on the road seperating bikes from cars. Most bike paths are so seperated from the roads that you never see them.
