Cycling like the Dutch would slash the world’s carbon footprint 

If everybody cycled like the Dutch, we could offset Canada’s entire carbon footprint.

@BrentToderian great idea but have you ever been to Netherlands? It’s flat, like a billiard table, no hills, easy riding.
@BrentToderian @alistairgbarron I used to think that until the wind hit me 😅😂 Dutch wind on that table top is +/- the hills I had back in the UK. Only it’s constant 🥵
