Standing on strange streets, trying not to get run over :)

Hmmmm. That kinda makes a bit of sense, as I'm pretty sure one of the big Chinese Automakers own Volvo now. I know that VW is also built under license here, off the top of my head I can't think of any others at the moment. Vehicle building is a pretty incestuous affair these days, you don't know who's in bed with whom :)
Yes, Volvo is now owned by the Chinese conglomerate Geely, just like Polestar, Zeekr, and Lynk & Co.

All are now also sold in the Netherlands.
 
So I borrowed my Nephew's bicycle again, for another bit of a pedal around the city.
I probably shouldn't be doing this, I somehow managed to pick up a DVT/Blood clot in my leg, on the flight over here, got immobilzed for about 3 weeks, and I'm on a couple of different courses of Blood thinners. Not exactly a low risk activity cycling around a strange city on the "wrong" side of the road, with chaos going on all around you ha ha ha ha.
Anyway, I made a vain attempt with some bubble wrap to try and make the seat a touch more comfortable. Failed dismally.

I find it hilarious picking out all the different design cues on the little electric cars and pickup's/Utes here. I found a small dealership and had a wander around ha ha ha. Now what does that remind me of? He he he.
