“The best collection of Dutch cycling photos ever assembled!”
-Henry Cutler, Founder, WorkCycles
“American photographer and author Shirley Agudo catches the beauty, fun and pleasure of cycling in her photography. She shows to the Dutch – and the rest of the world – how special our bicycle culture really is. We are hardly aware of this phenomenon ourselves.”
