Though Amsterdam is obviously very cycle friendly, Vondelpark is a good location to have a risk free ride round in a pleasant environment to make the most of your hired bike.

It is a nice, big park. You could walk for over an hour and only be half way done. Spent the day there just watching the wildlife and people. We also went without the truffels and it was beautiful. Nice place to have a smoke and watch the Dutch. Lakes and a few statues.
