By providing data-driven analyses of bicycle ridership and cost-benefit evaluations, the book offers a roadmap for cities seeking to become bike-friendly. It begins by introducing bicycle urbanism and progresses through analyzing successful cities, focusing on practical infrastructure design, and exploring the economic, health, and environmental impacts of cycling. The book's unique value lies in its synthesis of practical guidance with theoretical insights, making it an invaluable resource for urban planners, policymakers, and cycling advocates seeking to create more sustainable and livable cities.
