Cities should be paying people to bike. Cities should be buying people e-bikes. Cities should be rewarding people for convincing neighbors to ride bikes. Every trip by bike is a net financial gain socially. And it compounds, the more people who do it.

Every city has the room to make their urban spaces better. You simply have to look under the cars.

Riding bikes is 10X more important than electric cars for reaching net-zero cities. And that’s just the climate emissions. Doesn’t include the massive public & personal cost difference, the air & noise pollution difference, the massive space difference, etc, etc…Via @theconversation.bsky.social

Cycling is ten times more important than electric cars for reaching net-zero cities
Active travel can help tackle the climate crisis earlier than electric vehicles – even if you swap the car for a bike for just one trip a day.

I originally started filming Utrecht because of its cycling infrastructure. Looking back over seventeen years of footage, I realised I have documented something much bigger: the transformation of an entire city. Blog, video and playlist:

Utrecht: Seventeen Years of Change
When I first started filming in Utrecht in 2009, I had no idea I would still be documenting the city seventeen years later. Looking back through my archive, I realised how well I can show just how much has changed during that time. Few cities transform overnight, but Utrecht has changed remarkably in less than two decades.

One of the privileges of bicycle diplomacy is seeing Dutch cities through other people’s eyes. Yesterday, Chris explored Amsterdam by duofiets with Mexican mobility leader Luis Álvarez-Icaza. Every transformation begins with a conversation. And sometimes, it takes place on a bicycle built for two.

I'm not saying everyone has to live by bike, but you don't have to accept the car culture status quo. Mobility freedom is infrastructure that gives you real choices. In a well-designed city, taking the cargo bike for this errand is simply faster, easier, and way more fun.

A city may have the best cycling infrastructure, but without bicycle parking, it still falls short. Safe, dry, accessible, free, and user-friendly parking options that connect both to the cycling- and public transport networks are essential to encourage people to choose to cycle.
