Cycling is social, shared
Therefore: Plan cycle paths wide enough to cycle side by side.

#Groningen - Fahrradstadt auf Weltniveau! Markus #Lewe, Präsident des @staedtetag war begeistert. Auf 4 Meter breiten Rad-Vorrangrouten, hervorragend gestalteten Fahrradstraßen und in einer fast autofreien City macht das Radfahren einfach Spaß - auch im Winter! ❄️❤️🚲
