Not to disparage the Netherlands but you have been building bike lanes
since the late 1890's and the use of bicycles is much, much higher
than in the U.S.


If only we could figure out if there were a relationship with building
more bike lanes and much higher use of bicycles.


You have to make it too expensive plus too much trouble for cars in order to increase bicycle use. You need high taxes and high fuel costs plus fees to come into the city core and other fees on automobiles that countries in Europe with high bicycle use have.

Cheers
