- longitudinal93 3y agoIt's all about the gear
- facialwipe 3y agoAnd a sense of humor?
- browningstreet 3y agoHave you been to the Netherlands?
- facialwipe 3y agoNo
- browningstreet 3y agoRains a lot. Pretty cold. Snows. Lots of bikes. But really nice biking infrastructure — of the kind that’s hard to imagine in places like North America.
- henvic 3y agoDoesn't snow as much, but the rain/wind can be pretty bad, and people still bike everywhere.
- pdn1 3y agoI used to work on my bicycle all winter in Canada when I was a kid... Delivering newspaper, daily... When you a dressed right it ain't bad
- maxerickson 3y agoThe population density is a bit of a factor. Like I live in a region in the US that is about the same size as Netherlands by area and has about 1/50th the population. And then if you go out west the difference gets starker than that. Of course higher density parts of the US also don't really match up with the infrastructure that exists in Netherlands, but it's not unreasonable to expect the infrastructure in a given area to scale with the number of people in that area.
