👍 “In countries which continue to invest in everyday cycling, more people travel by bike in towns, cities and rural locations. There’s no reason that the success seen in Amsterdam, Copenhagen — or more recently in Paris — can’t be replicated in Scotland” - @keithirving.bsky.social (Cycling Scotland)
