This research document analyzes three bike infrastructure cases - Bryggebro, Hans B. Gade, and Vestergade Vest in Denmark. The research aims to identify what infrastructure designs can significantly promote cycling. Data was collected through interviews, surveys, and bike counts to understand demographics, satisfaction, and bike usage at each site. The results found differences in age ranges, purposes for biking, satisfaction levels, and whether biking increased after infrastructure changes at the three sites. Overall, the research examines how bike infrastructure impacts cycling behavior.
The newsletter discusses developments in cycling infrastructure and promotion in Copenhagen and Denmark. It reports that Copenhagen's Bicycle Account 2010 shows an increase in cycling and cyclist safety. It also describes Odense rebranding itself as the "City of Cyclists" and a program using GPS to motivate children to cycle. Additionally, it covers new S-train carriages doubling bike capacity and implementing one-way traffic in bike compartments.
Bicycle tourism is popular in Germany, with over 2 million people taking bike tours annually and millions more considering future bike tours. Germany promotes bicycle tourism through projects like "Discovering Germany by Bike" and the "Bett & Bike" accommodation network with over 5,000 listings. The ADFC certifies popular bike routes and works to expand navigation options for cyclists.

Baisikeli is a company that designs and manufactures bicycles. Emma Jorn is a designer for Baisikeli who created their new model called Soverain. The Soverain is aimed at casual riders and emphasizes comfort, with features like an adjustable seat and shock absorption.
The document discusses cycling funding in England from 2004-2014. It notes that funding for cycling from central transport budgets increased from around £10 million to over £60 million annually in that time period. Additional funding of over £200 million came from local governments, London, and national lottery sources. The majority of Cycling England program spending from 2008-2011 went towards projects for young people, towns, and marketing. Key initiatives included the Cycling Towns program and the Bikeability cycling proficiency training. The document argues that a shift towards recognizing the health, congestion, and environmental benefits of cycling helped increase funding levels. It suggests continuing to make the economic case for cycling and learning lessons from successful city-led projects.
The document discusses measuring the economic efficiency of transportation investments through cost-benefit analysis. It provides examples showing that bicycle infrastructure projects can yield high economic returns compared to other modes when accounting for cost savings from health benefits, reduced pollution and congestion. Cost-benefit analysis of the Brygge Bridge in Copenhagen found an internal rate of return of 7.6%, comparable to other transportation projects. The analysis suggests bicycle projects deserve thorough economic evaluation along with other modes.
This document analyzes cycling statistics from 2007-2009 in Denmark. It shows that residents of smaller islands like Læsø and Fanø take a higher percentage of trips by bicycle compared to their daily distance traveled, while residents of larger cities travel farther each day but take a lower percentage of trips by bike. It also compares cycling behaviors between municipalities in larger urban areas.
