A picture shared by Prime Minister Modi on his twitter account shows him sitting and smiling on the Dutch-made bicycle which was gifted to him by Rutte yesterday.
"Thank you @MinPres @markrutte for the bicycle," Modi tweeted today, soon after his return from the Netherlands where he held wide-ranging talks with the Dutch prime minister.
In the photo, Rutte was also seen standing beside Modi.
Rutte, 50, usually cycles to work.
In the Netherlands, cycling is a way of life. In fact, with 18 million bicycles and just 16 million Dutch inhabitants, there are more bicycles than people, according to the invest in Holland website.
Modi returned to New Delhi this morning after concluding a three-nation tour to Portugal, the US and the Netherlands.
