Could be a regional thing. Where I live, cycling is for many people the standard way to go around. But then, most people are students around this city.
There are quite a few cities in Belgium and the Netherlands that promote cycling though. :)
- przmk 8y agoOnly the northern part of Belgium though (Flanders). The rest of the country has quite poor infrastructure for cycling, especially when compared to the Netherlands. I would love to cycle to work in Brussels but I do not feel comfortable doing so.
