Amsterdam Has So Many Bikes...

Okay, folks, it's time for your favorite pastime: audience participation! I'm here in Amsterdam and am totally blown away by the number of bikes. They're everywhere! It's actually quite comical. The task: to create the best "Amsterdam has so many bikes...." joke. Be as crass and creative as you like (Jule, I'm looking your way here). Here are a few to get you started.

Amsterdam has so many bikes, "bing bing" has become an accepted greeting in the local dialect
Amsterdam has so many bikes, the strippers in the red light district don't even have to go the gym.
Amsterdam has so many bikes and drugs, Lance Armstrong is consider a run for mayor.
Amsterdam has so many bikes, I score 75 points before even getting out of the rent-a-car lot.
Amsterdam has so many bikes, the hipsters have given up and now all drive SUVs.

I know you can do better than those. Let us have 'em!

Amsterdam has so many bikes it makes other cities look like they have less bikes in comparison, especially those cities that have less bikes.

First off: Jule, niiiice!
Second: Amsterdam has so many bikes, Sept. 22nd is bike-free day when car-drivers take part in an automobile Critical Mass protest to take back the streets, and then at the end of the route lift their cars over their heads in victory.
