I don't believe this is happening on a wide scale. I would love to see it. Living in a city with cycling infrastructure like we've been seeing in some European cities would truly be a joy.

We're a super keen cycling household, with more bikes than people. The kids and I ride to school/work routinely and have done pretty much all our lives. Even we can't get rid of the car. Sometimes, it is just necessary.
