Netherlands. Very dense cities surrounded by farm land.

One of my friends is an engineer for food manufacturing equipment. Another for payment processing, and another as a bike mechanic, and another builds gaming rigs (think sim rigs).

I don’t think I know anyone who works in tourism.

By car, yeah. By bike? You're crazy -- but totally doable.

If you wanted to hit all the major population centers (Maastricht, Nijmegen, Enschede, Groningen, Amsterdam, Den Hague, Rotterdam, Utrecht, Eindhoven), you'd be driving for about 10-12 hours ... with lots of boring farmland in between.

I underestimated its size... thought it was much smaller

Maastricht to Groningen is only about 3h20 by car. That's the longest distance I could find between two cities.

There's a good portion on the Autobahn in Germany on that route, so yeah, it would be a pretty short drive.
