As a casual cyclist, I really enjoy videos by https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9-ZlLTioqMZowRLZHscozw and https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0intLFzLaudFG-xAvUEO-A (even if the latter makes me feel jealousy more than anything else!), and was recently inspired by a collaboration between them to compare a North American City with a Dutch city, to see how bike-friendly the two were.
As a daily commuter in Plymouth UK, I'm painfully aware of the dangers and anxiety that road cycling presents, and was curious how my city would compare to the two showcased in the aforementioned channels' videos.
You should definitely check out the two videos from NJB and Shifter, links are here:
