In some weird statistics on motorcycling in the Netherlands, we find that the Dutch have about 650,000 motorcycles registered in their country, apparently doing 18.
1 billion kilometres a year.
In good news for the girls, a third of Dutch motorcycle licenses are held by women, up from a quarter about ten years ago.

But the most astonishing statistic is that in a country of just 16 million people, there are a total of 18 million bicycles.

I know there are a lot, but seriously – two million more than the number of people?!
