Going to amsterdam for a few days to visit some friends. Since it's a pain to bring a bike on the plane, does anyone know if you can rent (or possibly borrow) fixed gear bikes in Amsterdam?

Or maybe borrow a bike bag and bring my bike!

you can try http://www.dutchmessengers.org/ or http://www.rotterdamfixedgear.com/site/

I have a conversion for winter which you can borrow, the only problem is I live in Enschede, 2.5 hours from amsterdam.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
