Cycling advice, please, for a holiday in the Netherlands....

[Gail]

My husband is trying to organise a cycling holiday in the Netherlands in May and wants a map of cycling routes, which he can't get hold of in the UK.  Can any of our Dutch forum members suggest a website he could try please?
Many thanks.

Gail, for giving some advice it would be good to know in which part of Holland you want to cycle.
Here is at least a site with some routes in the western part of Holland.
One is rather close here and a greater part of it we made already and is worth doing.

A relative of us has made several routes around Rotterdam and he probably knows more routes.
Don't know if he is willing or has time to help. He planned a walking trip from Lands End to Northern Scotland (1800 kms.! ) and will start in May...

Many thanks for the useful link, Ian was really pleased.

We were in the Netherlands as a family last August and borrowed the white bicycles in the Hoge Veluwe National Park which was fun but I'm not going on this year's trip as Ian and his friends take their cycling rather too seriously.  I've been on walks with them and stopped to admire a flower or watch a dipper in the river only to look up and find everyone else half a mile ahead, so I'm sure that whilst they may admire the fields of bulbs as they speed by, there will be no stops for detailed looks at the flowers!
