Transport
I live in the Netherlands, and everyone here owns at least one bicycle. For short distances it is an ideal form of transportation. Cycling is sporty, easy and good for the environment.
Sport
Cycling is also an exciting sport. Worldwide there are a lot of professional racing cyclists. Personally I like big road races like the Tour de France and the Giro d'Italia. But it is not only an European sport. In Burkina Faso for example, the annual race is the event of the year.
