People who argue against bike infrastructure in the U.S. are always quick to bring up the lack of hills in the Netherlands, but they never make the connection with the strong winds there (doubly ironic, given the romantic affinity we all have for Dutch windmills). It's frustrating, but I think e-bikes will finally be the death knell for this meme. (I've also heard that some infrastructure in NL actually takes wind into account by providing windbreaks for cyclists.)
