زمینه فرهنگی
In the Netherlands, riding a bike is the primary mode of transport for all ages and social classes. It is common to see people riding in business suits or carrying groceries and children on their bikes. In many US cities, riding a bike is seen more as a recreational activity or a sport. However, 'bike-friendly' cities like Portland or Minneapolis are making it more common for commuting. China was once known as the 'Kingdom of Bicycles.' While cars are now more common, massive bike-sharing programs have brought millions of people back to riding bikes in major cities. Copenhagen is one of the most bike-friendly cities in the world. There are 'cycle superhighways' designed specifically for people who ride bikes long distances to work.
