For Sale: Buying a bike in the Netherlands

I'm about an hour away by train, but if she really doesn't manage to get it done somewhere, let me know and she can come by.

Thanks for this.

But, hopefully, KLM, in a similar true Dutch style have stepped in and:

We thank you for your e-mail.

If you want to bring a bike it is always on request.
The bike is including in the free allowance if exceeding the free allowance
a fix charge applies within Europe it is Eur20.00 per one way.
If you want to request the bike we advise you to contact our reservation department.

:)

Cool, I've read KLM bikeboxes somewhere, but didn't know you were planning on flying back to UK. :)

I'm heading over to Amsterdam next weekend; plane out, ferry back. Hoping to pick a couple of decent, second hand live-outside dutch bikes while I'm there.

As I'm only there for two days, I could do without the potential faff of buying through Marktplaats (though I will look there also). Can anyone recommend a good shop/market to buy secondhand bikes in amsterdam.

Thanks.

Anyone?
