Over the last few months, there has been a steady stream of photos and videos showcasing the world’s largest bicycle parking garage that opened in Amsterdam. This facility, which is completely free for daily use under 24 hours, and this massive investment by the municipal government, is not simply to benefit those who ride bicycles.

rack in front of the building - secured, but behind a wall so thieves have privacy

This one drives me crazy. Why bother putting a bike rack if you've got it hidden? I actually contacted the manager(?) of a plaza after they moved a central bike rack to the side of the building! They moved it back a week later. LOL
