Hey!  Apropos of absolutely nothing . . . does anyone remember the
'White Bike of Amsterdam?'  Back in the sixties there was this
white painted bicycle in Amsterdam which anyone could use whenever
they wanted.  It belonged to no one; and the only condition of its
use was that one had to leave it available for the next guy.  I
believe this was mentioned in a Beatles' documentary, but I am not
sure.

I sure would like any information on this white bike; also anything
on any free bike programs throughout the world. I know that here in
Portland, Maine, someone is trying to put together a collection of
yellow painted bicycles for anyone to use.
