Cycle parking at Assen station. There really are quite a lot of bikes here for a city of 63000 people. Play the video to get an idea of how many. Not all the bikes are in this park - there is another similar cycle park on the opposite side of the station.
The amount of cycle parking here is considered to be inadequate and is being increased to 2300 places. That's one for every twenty eight residents.
Note the easy route from station platform to the cycle parking.
See also #12299 for a view of the parking at the other side of the station.
