Bought this road bike (bulls harrier 2 2022) about 2 months ago for the more sporty rides. I never realized how much of a difference the surface quality makes on those narrow tires. One of the few things i can't complain about as a Dutchman I guess.

Actual two-way bike lanes!? And here I am in Texas, dodging giant holes in the concrete and avoiding getting hit by cars. That looks like it was a nice ride!

You should visit if you ever want to drool over bicycle infrastructure.

If you're unfamiliar with the YouTube channel Not just Bikes, you should check it out. Here's a nice video to get you started.

Yeah, I've been a subscriber to that channel for a while now. :D Our company's HQ is in the Netherlands, so perhaps one day I'll make it out there.

Fellow Dutchman here, also bought a road bike about two months ago. I love that you can cycle basically everywhere in the country on smooth bicycle paths, it's so nice.
