Default Nice article on naturally bike-friendly towns

https://www.strongtowns.org/journal/...-friendly-town

I thought this was particularly sensible: "I've spent enough time in
Copenhagen, Amsterdam and Malmo to realize that the world's truly great
bicycle friendly places had lots of bicyclists before they had lots of
infrastructure. Change the culture. Create cyclists... more than you
can possibly imagine. If you do, then the built environment will
naturally follow."

I'm not saying it's easy. It's just more sensible than spending a
fortune hoping to build an Amsterdam.
