Greetz everyone

in by gone years trichomefarmer led the 420 bike tours, this year i don't think he's coming, so i guess it's up to us to get it organized.

for myself i'll be renting a bike on day 1.

when is the best time? i'm not really an early bird
maybe around 11 or 12, then we can also go eat lunch on the tour if we want to.

we also need to decide on a meeting point, maybe the Pinkfloyd?

lets see how many are even up for some biking in flat Amsterdam. hope we get a good group, it's a lot of fun zooming around hazed out of your brain from one nice coffee shop to the next.

see you guys soon

Hi gm m8,

Sounds good man, but do u mean you'll just be hiring a bike for Day 1, or for day 1 and other days too?

I know what you mean about buzzin' around on Hazes, but since I'm going to mainly cane black hash, I might not be in a fit state for riding around a busy city, lol hahaha

I'll see how wrecked I get on the evening of the 19th when I arrive, and if I'm still in a fit state I'll hire a bike on the 20th if you guys are still using bikes.

Peace

hehe i'll rent it from day one till the morning i fly back.
riding a bike all together in a group you should be ok just do what the guy in front does lol. i'll sure join you for some of those black hashes.

Count me in Gaius, I'm renting a bike as soon as I get off the plane in the morning of 18th.

rgds, kov

That's the prob bro, we'll only get as far as the guy in the front... And once he's baked, we are going nowhere

But aside from jokes, sounds likes a good plan to cover more coffe, err.. terrain.

What are the prices for such a thing?

[gaiusmarius]

Nice one kov, we have to hook up when you arrive.

Browser dude i'll use a gps unit so we don't get lost no matter how stoned or high we get, hehe. i wonder has anyone made an i phone app yet that shows you all the coffee shops in Amsterdam with links to their menus?

but all jokes aside it ain't that hard to find your way, maps for emergencies.

i forget what it costs to rent a bike, depends which rental place you use too. i only know one of them, that's where i always went. wasn't expensive as far as i remember.

Depending on where you rent, it's 10-15 EUR per 24hrs for a basic three speed pedal brake bike, plus a couple Eur for insurance. No need for sophisticated mountainbikes, thanks God there's no mountains in A'dam, hmm, maybe except for those stoner heights.

Edit: Yeah Gaius, thanks for the pic bringing fond memories, that's the place I used to get my bike from. Pretty basic piece of machinery, not too reliable, but good enough for a stoner ride.

A'ha, also I seem to remember that you have to make a 30-50 eur deposit, returnable.

hehe thats true Hazy, can be fun trying to find your way back or to some of the more out of the way coffee shops.

i always rented the cheapest bike there, no gears at all and a back pedal brake only lol. non of this luxury stuff with 3 gears, hehe. mind you, i might go for the 3 gears this time, getting older after all

we are gonna have fun

I'll be in town from 16th - I will try to get to the new Dampkring by 12 noon on the 18th (thats a bit early for a lazy Amsterdam Sunday but I will try )
