Today is #WorldBicycleDay 🚲
The Netherlands leads the world in cycling: 18.2 billion km cycled annually, 23 million bikes, and 35,000 km of dedicated bike paths.
We look forward to sharing Dutch cycling expertise at Velo-city 2026 in Rimini! #cycling #sustainability #VC26
ALT Photo: Dutch Cycling Embassy Today is #WorldBicycleDay! Did you know that in the Netherlands, there are more bikes than people? And by 2027, we’re aiming for 600,000 bike parking spots at train stations. Why? Because the future moves on two wheels.
