زمینه فرهنگی

The 'Tour de France' is the most famous cycling event in the world. It makes 'faire du vélo' a part of the national identity every July. The 'Vélib'' system (bike sharing) has revolutionized how Parisians move. 'Faire du vélo' is now often faster than the metro in the city center. While French people 'faire du vélo' for sport or leisure, the Dutch see it as a primary utility. The French are catching up in urban areas. In Quebec, 'faire du vélo' is extremely popular in the summer, but the 'pistes cyclables' are often closed or dangerous in the winter due to snow.
