Indeed this poll is crooked. Although I do own a bicycle. But I also own multiple bicycles
How many bicycles do you own?
- I do not own a bicycle
- I own one bicycle
- I am Dutch
0 voters
this made me laugh out loud, like literally
Sounds like I need to apply for Dutch citizenship
Wah! I thought you were Dutch this whole time! My world is shattered!
Fooled ya, didn’t I
But we are close neighbours, and there is no cycling like in the netherlands.
Aga was awarded honorary Dutch citizenship a while ago.
Right, gotcha. Because of the bikes.
Dutch passport comes free with the purchase of your 5th bicycle, you get a little scratch-off card and everything
Side note, but with all this talk about citizenship/passports - I am an Irish citizen through my Father, and I am very proud of that - but never got my passport. Currently in process of getting it after covid bogged things down, just finishing rounding up some of the last documentation I need.
I take a lot of pride in my heritage and have always identified more with that side of my family and culture. Excited to get something physical related to my citizenship.
Will also come in handy if I ever feel the need to flee the US, and will make it very easy to get around the EU.
Looks like you are safe on both sides of the atlantic. Have you been to Europe?
That is very sweet. Thank you
Yes, but not mainland Europe.
I am fortunate enough to have visited Ireland to visit my family more times than I can count.
Iceland, England, Wales, Scotland - once each.
Next time I get to Ireland I plan on making the jump to the mainland.
I even have an orange bicycle (by pure coincidence, not choice), does that make me more Dutch still?
You’ll need to take that up with the proper authorities, I just make the polls.
I believe you need to have an orange omafiets.
Alas, that counts me out
. This and the conversation had me laughing so hard.
I do own 2 bikes but feel I’m far from Dutch citizenship . Couldn’t find the appropriate box to tick off lol
I used to have orange omafiets!
Now I have dark blue one.
And a bakfiets (on the photo).
And electric one.
Are they popular in onther countries too? They are so handy when you have kids.
I don’t think you need to tick a box, you’re in as long as you:
- own more than one bike
- insist on mayonnaise with french fries/fried potatoes
- pump both fists in the air when you are enjoying a tune
