As Deputy Mayor David Belliard of Europe Ecologie-Les Verts (EELV) aptly notes, cycling in Paris has transcended mere trendiness; it’s become a fundamental aspect of the city’s identity. Despite challenges like inclement weather, cyclists continue to flock to the streets, setting new attendance records and reshaping the urban landscape in the process.

Please try to name me a single bicycle lobby in the US. And now exchange bicycle with car.

    I mean your point is taken, but Washington Area Bicyclists Association does amazing lobbying in the DMV. We also have some of the most bike friendly drivers around, paired with pretty good infrastructure for the US. It's a super needed lobby.
