Hardly seems to support BCarfree's beaten horse that, "but while the Danes and Dutch were initiating their bike culture, we had it going in Davis at a much higher rate than they have achieved."

As trike_guy and I have already pointed out, a relatively fair weather, small town dominated by a college campus and college age students and little else, is not comparable to a large city or country with people of all ages, occupational, wealth and family status, and multiple destinations at greater distance from each other.
