Still nice to see some local sites in the video. That last shot of the bridge where they're actually riding is on one of my regular training routes where the Ookmeerweg goes over the Akerdijk.Correlation is not causation.0 -

Mmm... Think they did whatever the female version of "dropping a bo11ock" is, there: when it started I thought it was going to contrast the slightly tongue-in-cheek "girls glamming up" at the beginning with a ferocious sequence showing the brutality of racing... But they didn't.0 -

It's really nasty (in Dutch terms) when coming from the south east and having to cross the traffic and head down the cycle path to get up over the bridge. You really can't see the traffic coming in either direction and it can't see you. It's always a gulp and take the plunge situation for me.OCDuPalais wrote:Mmm...

That's exactly what I was expecting too and then it didn't happen.Correlation is not causation.0 -
