Zeewolde officially put its first singing bike path into use on Tuesday afternoon. The path runs parallel to the Gelderseweg and is intended to encourage cyclists to sing while riding. The initiative was proposed by residents Linda Timmer and Hermien de Graaf and was supported by the municipal council and alderman Ineke Schaddelee.

Artist Erik Wallenburg designed a gender-neutral sign featuring a bicycle and musical elements, with the text “Bicycle, sing and enjoy!” The sign cost the municipality 150 euros, while the artist received a volunteer fee. The initiators said the sign was not meant to be taken too seriously and that it could simply make people happy.
