You sure he wasn't also a wearing his clogs while biking to his tulip farm before going home to make stroopwafels while eating Gouda?

And to be more specific, he was biking home on his fatbike.
Nah, not a fatbike, he was a native Dutchman.
As are many of the modern fatbike riders ;)
Indeed, fatbike riders come in all colours. Though I have noticed that it is mainly transportation for the poor.
Not so much "poor" 'cause that is rare in the Netherlands. Having said that fatbikes are significantly less expensive than other electric bicycles so they are more popular with those who don't want to or can't spend as much money on an electric bike.
> those who don't want to (…) spend as much money

That would generally speaking be the average Dutch person, no?
