although the bike tracks there are not always as modern as amsterdam; some are just sand paths; and the key change and sudden rise to falsetto makes me think after trying to ride faster he swerved to avoid a goose; then crashed into the gander and got pitched forward so a sensitive part of a mans body strikes the bovenbuis (top tube) – the term alles naar de kloten would be appplicable.
This is also why older men in NL often ride what we would call a “girls bike” (which lacks the top tube); its often still called a damenfiets or omafiets across the water.
But Dutch bikes are made strong enough to survive a bird strike; there are plenty of bike mechanics who can check his machine over, a dierenambulance in that area which would make sure the birds are OK; so he decides to sit down and have a drink in the pub before riding back :laugh_at:
