World Cycling Forum Concludes: Perfect Storm Coming for Bikes

ROTTERDAM, the Netherlands – The World Cycling Forum that took place Tuesday and yesterday in Rotterdam, the Netherlands unmasked myths like the one that predicts the end of the bicycle sector due to the rise of bike and/or e-step-scooter sharing systems in all major cities. On the contrary. In fact, all keynote speakers of the 2nd World Cycling Forum held on 4 and 5 June were very united in their conclusions; there’s a perfect storm coming for (electric) bikes as the fight against climate change will be intensifying in the next years. However, the bike sector also urgently needs to take action to make that ‘storm’ happen.
