都会自転車統計According to a recent New York Times article, 0.6% of commuters in the Big Apple use a bicycle to get to work. Other American cities are noted below:
Chicago: 1.2%
Washington, D.C: 2.2%
San Francisco: 3%
Minneapolis: 3.9%
Portland: 5.8%
Copenhagen: 55%
John Pucher, the co-author of “City Cycling,” notes that Paris has roughly 1,490 bike parking spaces per 100,000 people. London has 1,670 and Tokyo about 6,400.
New York has 152.
Gabe Klein, Chicago's transportation commissioner, argues that cycling is pushing back against a whole range of modern problems. “There’s the congestion problem,” he said. “The pollution problem. The obesity problem. The gas problem.”
“Bikes are definitely a symbol of what your city stands for,” said Klein.
