Beware of the Dutch Bike Shop. The urge to purchse might just overwhelm you.

Multi-colored tulips. Whirring windmills. Iconic wooden shoes. All images likely to be conjured up when one’s thoughts turn to the Dutch Netherlands.

But bicycles?

Not hardly, at least not in Chicago’s Lincoln Park area. Don’t be so sure in the future, though. That’s because the Dutch Bike Co. opened shop last fall at 651 West Armitage. Sales and traffic have been, if you will, biking along very nicely since day one.
