This reminded me of a video I saw recently about the Bahamas, whose capital (Nassau) is a small island (~1 hour across via a bike), with near-perfect weather (all-year sunshine, but not too hot, rainfall mostly in the summer), no hills, perfect conditions for biking, right?
In spite of the above almost everyone has a car. Public transport is almost non-existent, and bicycles are rare (and of course, there is no bike infrastructure).
It is really not about the weather, it is about the mindset.

- anotheruser13 4y agoAre the jitneys gone? That was as close to public transit as they had in Nassau when I was there ages ago. For a couple Bahamian dollars, you could get almost anywhere. Granted, you got to see how the poor people lived, but it was certainly interesting. And it was fun yelling "bus stop" when you wanted to get off.
