Bicycle culture in Amsterdam: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qk6YxhKH590


Helsinki is not that bicycle-friendly at all. More space for bicycles on the roads would help a lot more than a route planner. It is good progress, I don't deny that, but it certainly doesn't make Helsinki the most bicycle-friendly city in the world. Amsterdam and Copenhagen are probably years ahead of Helsinki.


Ever been to Davis, CA? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Davis%2C_ca#Bicycling

The city logo is a bicycle, and there's a bicycle statue too... http://daviswiki.org/Bicycling


Boston is also quite good. An avid cyclist friend in SF was very jealous of our minuteman trail. I certainly love it, and there is talk of extending it all the way downtown.
