Discover Amsterdam by canal bike!
Canal Bike lets out 100 canal bikes from four docks in the center of Amsterdam. You can start on one dock and return the canal bike at an other. A booklet including routes and fun anecdotes makes sure you will have an unforgettable experience on the canals through Amsterdam. While you roam around on your own speed through the canals, you will see the craziest things and have wonderful adventures! It is not possible to discover Amsterdam in a more fun and active way! And in case it rains a little... we will put a little roof over your canal bike.
Our docks can be found at the Leidseplein, across the Rijksmuseum, at the Anne Frank Huis/Westerkerk and at the corner of the Keizersgracht/Leidsestraat. We are open from April until the end of October on four docks from 10 am until about 6pm. On warm summer nights we often stay open until 9.30pm. During the winter time it is also possible to rent a canal bike. During the week you can come to the dock at the Rijksmuseum. On the weekend the docks at Westerkerk and Leidseplein are usually open as well.

MULTIPOWER supports you as your personal Sportsfoods Coach with the correct and important nutrients at the right time. Not only recreational sportsmen are convinced by the product’s strength of quality and innovation. MULTIPOWER is the official partner of the Olympic base in Rhine Ruhr. Also the Longrée brothers, who rank as Germany’s top-triathlon athletes, swear by the dietary supplement within the frame of their nutritional diet.
By working together with high-performance sports we constantly develop our products further and offer you the best support - and we have done this for over 30 years already.

In order to have fun and success in a sport on a long-term basis, training and nutrition must go hand in hand. No matter, which goal you would like to achieve, if the training plan and the nutrition are not coordinated with it, short term successes can be achieved at best. A slim, firm figure, a thoroughly trained, muscular body or constantly good performance in the field of endurance are more the result of lifestyle and nutritional diets, rather than of genetics or miracle drugs. So why is it so difficult for some to achieve their goals? Good resolutions are soon forgotten again in everyday life and there is a reason why, too, as psychologists have found out. People as creatures of habit, unknowingly call on all habits, the good and the bad. This is practical for activities like driving a car. It is only possible however to change eating habits over to good and suitable nutrition through discipline.
