Bicycle culture refers to the social and community practices surrounding the use of bicycles for transportation, recreation, and sport. It promotes cycling as a sustainable and healthy mode of travel, encouraging people to adopt biking as part of their daily lives. Cities with strong bicycle cultures often have dedicated bike lanes, bike-sharing programs, and events like Critical Mass that celebrate cycling. This culture also emphasizes the benefits of cycling, such as reduced traffic congestion, lower carbon emissions, and improved public health. Organizations like PeopleForBikes advocate for better infrastructure and policies to support cyclists, fostering a sense of community among riders.
