80% of cyclists (aka people who ride bikes) in #Copenhagen ride their bikes all winter. This stat has been around for quite a while, originally via @Colvilleandersen, so I’d be interested in knowing what the current numbers are. Inspiring cities like this have had an effect over the years — winter biking has become more common in more cities every year, usually fuelled by improvements to infrastructure & maintenance.
