@CyclingMikey The facts could not be more clear: country with elaborate cycle infrastructure (NL) mode share of cycling ca. 30%. Countries without cycle infra (UK/US/Aus etc) mode share ca. 1%. Countries with some infra (Germany/Danmark) mode share ca. 15-20%.
Unfortunately in the UK, most people drive and can't see any alternative. If only the politicians would demonstrate vision, intelligence and think logically, they would realise that getting cars off the road and onto bikes would benefit congestion; pollution; public health; boost businesses and the economy.
At the moment, expecting politicians to lead, instead of following the opinions of a public misinformed by a mostly anti-cyclist news media [newspapers], is unfortunately just too much.
I wish Germany would put so much effort into putting bicycle infrastructure into place as the Netherlads are. I usually have to ride on the street with all the stupdi cars passing me.

I'm not sure that you can conclude segregation and infrastructure is what makes for more cycling.

The Netherlands, together with Denmark, is an example of adaptation to modern times.
Expensive fuels, pollution, lack of exercise.
In my country, I hope soon, take this iniciativa (increasing)
