  1. These little canals with all the grass look so wonderful, if I knew I was riding along these surroundings I would never get off the road. I ride un my city pretty reguraliry but there are no paths or infrastructure, so going to the waterfront where the peace is means I have to spend the most of the way on an arterial with horrible bumps and angry drivers, let alone the exhaust fume you swallow. Very hopeful we can change too

  2. i am American and love my car! Cycling is a sport. Stop fosil fuell and the air is clean. Start dancing for exercise. To drive to work or a social event and you arrive with a sweaty body and messy hair!!

  3. Damn…I really wish my county wasn't highjacked by car/oil lobbyists to make it as car dependent as possible so that riding a bicycle is literally playing with death.

  4. Wish we had that here in the Philippines. We have a bike lane in the city but there is just too much car traffic and the main mode of transportation is Jeepney so people are kind of afraid they might get hit. plus the weather is rather hot. ugh.

  5. "cycling requires social interaction"
    And there's my biggest problem, with an anxiety disorder I'm not always able to engage in that. It excludes me from activities, types of work and social events, public transport is also no option for me unfortunately. That's why I need and love my car next to my bicycle. My car definitely makes my world larger.
    But a bicycle is very handy for short trips, and taking my bicycle with me sometimes makes me feel more secure.

  6. By far some of the best experiences in my life biking in the Netherlands. I explored parts of Amsterdam that most tourists will never see.

  7. Fortunately The Netherlands have winters with very little snow and ice. It would be difficult to ride a bike together with so many others in 20 cm of snow cover.

  8. Love the shape of older Dutch bicycles. Recently changed my bike from a road bike to a hybrid with a more upright seating position after a back injury. It has helped me to start exercising again.

  9. Also for the disabled to get around on wheelchairs and being unable to drive or not needing to drive. And for people who are banned from getting a driver's license.
