haha! 
you have two choices, risk getting hit by a large metal object, or falling into a pit filled with piranha.

Holland? I dont see any windmills, sheep, or tulips. Now that I am done with the stereotype, I think this should be a motorcycle lane. Also, there should be a open web cam always filming this stretch just to see what happens. Id try to ride it on my motorcycle... once.

Almost sure it's the Netherlands, I believe we're one of the few countries with yellow number plates on the cars

DRAGUN, if you try and ruin your motorcycle, it will be "once = too much", I guess.
Do I hear "Splash!"?

@D_Blade, Dost thou seem to suggest that I hath not aquired proper control of my internally combusted, electronic sequential port fuel injected, two wheeled, chain driver, auto-mobile? I doth Protest good sir! 

Seriously, I could do it. Anyone want to dare me? We had to do this (without the water) so I could pass the advanced motorcycle course, at high and low speed (low being just above tipping over sideways).

In that case, good sir, I will wear arm bands of floatation, just to err on the side of caution. Good show!

Japanese license plates aren't yellow... so that can't be Japan right?

It would be even better if it was raised 2 feet above the regular car lane, and had three jumps in it.

Polytechnic Freshman. Mmm... fresh.
if that was in singapore you'll need to:

1) know how to swim. no passerby 
is going to save you, damn apathy.
2) carry a weapon to ward of idiots who have nothing better to do after lunch than try to push you in.

A lot of the time, even on regular sidewalks in Japan I can never remember what side is for bikes.  Even with the big yellow line down the middle everyone winds up walking and biking wherever they like.  I almost dreaded hearing a bicycle bell behind me when I was down there, because I wasn't sure which direction I should leap out of the way.

That is definitely in The Netherlands somewhere, but it's a fake ;) Some-one must have painted the symbol himself :)

I would ride there if i was in a rush and the road was blocked.
That's about enough space for the tyre to ride on; you only need more space for your arms and legs sticking out.

That's brilliant. How do you get rid of those annoying weekend peddlers? Like THIS of course. Now I wont have to run into them. just let them fall of on their own, once I push them over of course.
