Amazing bike stall - parking in Utrecht, the Netherlands. It's at the busiest train station in the…read morecountry. In between the actual station and huge indoor shopping mall, it sits below the surface and goes more than 5 floors down. It's similar to a huge parking garage for cars, but this is just for bikes. Nice automated lighting to tell you how many spaces remain on each row. There is a check-in and check-out. Also the train schedules are on monitors in the stairs so you know when to catch your next ride. Very clean and safe, large travel lanes so getting in and out is easy!

"Damn a flat tire!" belongs to the standard vocabulary of most people living in Amsterdam. So I was…read morenot surprised to find a startup called like that, offering mobile bike fixing service. But I WAS surprised that in bike city no one came up with this idea erlier. I saved their number on my mobile phone despite my naive hope that I'll never have to call them. Shortly after I had to and I was thankful to hear that one of them was in the hood and I didn't have to wait too long. The guy came equipped with spare wheel, bike pump and toolset. The bike was quickly fixed and I don't remember what the service cost but I do remember that it is very good value for money and no extra urgency charge. So, I recommend everyone to save the number of DAFT to get quick hassle-free help in bike emergencies.

Super friendly staff and very professional. I will definitely use them again. The bike technician…read morewas even there a few minutes early and beat me to the spot since of course I got blocked by a draw bridge, then a closed road, but he called me and we met up shortly after. He went above and beyond to fix my husband's bike. He put the pedal crank back on, tightened a few things and oiled the chain. Very nice guy. I emailed them over a holiday weekend, so it took a little while to get a response since we had to go back and forth a bit. Very convenient, but I had to wait an extra day since they couldn't meet me until after 11am. And even though I asked for the price ahead of time, they forgot to send it to me. Though, I think the cost was reasonable. I would just make sure you know the price before you go if it's not already on the price list. You can pay in cash or they will invoice you and you can transfer the funds that day. They have an app, but it's iOS only for now. :(
