Davis also has the rare advantage of rarely raining, and being incredibly flat. Both of these make biking far more attractive to the average student.

    But we are talking about what it takes to get lazy Americans to bike. I am well aware of how popular biking is in Copenhagen even though they have comparatively terrible weather. Davis truly has an unusual confluence of factors that make biking more appealing to Americans.

      On the other hand, lots of other cities in California and elsewhere have similar circumstances. Meanwhile, Copenhagen has very different circumstances but huge bike uptake. It's fundamentally about policy. Take the steps, and you'll get the results.
