The entrance to the 3-storey bike parking garage at Utrecht Central holding 12,500 bicycles. It’s free for the first 24 hours, linked to the station, and used by tens of thousands every day. This is what happens when a country treats bikes as real transport infrastructure, not an afterthought.

My latest: Would you replace coffee with a $100 wristband that mildly zaps you and stimulates your nerves to keep you awake?
Turns out most Chinese people are saying no, as they ridicule the viral gadget "eCoffee" and call it a portable electric chair. (You can buy it here and try it out tho.)

A Viral Chinese Wristband Claims to Zap You Awake. The Public Says 'No Thanks’
The maker of the eCoffee Energyband says it electrically stimulates your nerves to keep you alert. Researchers are skeptical, and critics see it as a way for China’s bosses to keep workers productive.
