Two weeks to tour in the Netherlands? Where would I go? Um, Belgium... Specifically the lumpy bit in the east. In 2 weeks you could get from Hoek all the way out east down to Zuid Limburg, through the Hogh Venn, and even down to Luxembourg and back.
On a more practical note, based on cycling here in .nl a lot, things to be aware of:
- The headwind is omni directional, don't think that turning round on a headwind will ease, you'll find you've got the same wind from behind too...
- Being flat is not the wonderful utopian riding you think it is, there is no rest bite. You will keep pedalling and always pedalling and you can't get to the top of this rise, and coast for 5 minutes...
- You can see for miles, this means you can be seen for miles... makes nipping behind a bush hard...
- Public loo's are a foreign concept...
Other than that, good luck!
