How the Dutch created a casual biking culture
Cities designed for bikes and bicyclists, are still not cities designed for humans.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;newworldeconomics.com&#x2F;the-problem-with-bicycles&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;newworldeconomics.com&#x2F;the-problem-with-bicycles&#x2F;</a><p>Bikes are expensive personal transportation, compared to not owning any, they take up space in every home with muddy, oily mechanisms, they take up a lot of space in bicycle parks outside every desirable destination serving to push everything further apart for humans on foot, they don&#x27;t mesh well with pedestrians (in a collision with a pedestrian and a fast moving metal bike, the pedestrian loses), they require equipment you might need to carry (locks, helmets, other), they need ongoing maintenance, they don&#x27;t go well with nice clothes and tend to require places to change, carrying a change of clothes, 
 or even showers, after any but short journeys in mellow weather.
