The Netherlands: a cycling country
Cycling is part of everyday life for many people in the Netherlands. Children often learn to cycle at a young age. People with a migration background may not have had the opportunity to learn. Being able to cycle gives more freedom and independence. It makes it easier to travel around Apeldoorn and reduces dependence on others or public transport. That is why Stichting Da Capo offers free cycling lessons.
Four benefits
- More freedom
- More independence
- Easier travel around Apeldoorn
- Less dependence on public transport
