I knew Amsterdam would win. I'm not surprised it was a landslide.

North American culture frowns on bicycles for some reason. The guy in the video claimed it was due to a lack of proper infrastructure, which I disagree. The lack of infrastructure is a reflection of the culture, not a cause of it.

I live just two hours south of Calgary. I can say for certain that much of the cause here is the fact that biking as a means of transportation is only feasible maybe 6 or 7 months of the year, and that's pushing it. Winter is too long, unpredictable, and cold for it to work.
