Copenhagen Cycling Statistics...

160,000 Copenhagen residents ride a total of 1.3 million kilometers every workday. 50% of adults cycle to work or school. 24% use public transport. 13% walk and only 13% use a car.
Impressive don't you think.
Yes, I know that 98% of all statistics are made up but these ones may be on the level...

  1. Looks like a good bike area...flat, paved roads. I would like to see them try mu gravel, washboard mountain roads everyday on a bike.

  3. Good old bikes, grew up with them in The Netherlands, where they just had the vierdaagse (four days marches). Great event.
