And yet it is one of the highest bike rates for a major city in the US (having fairly good weather for biking certainly helps). So far, more and better infrastructure has led to more biking, just like you'd expect.

Plus, with the steady rise of ebikes, hills are only going to matter less and less over time.

Hear hear. And bikes reallybare a better sollution for traffic density (when possible) than counting on people carpooling.

> Amazing infrastructure for cycling (at least in Amsterdam).

It's actually even better outside of Amsterdam. Not nearly as crowded, not as many tourists trying to ride a bike for the first time ever, no pedal-driven saloon floats blocking the paths, and pedestrians and cyclists actually do stop at red lights.
