Filmmaker Jay Savsani recently produced this short documentary on transportation bike culture in Amsterdam, a city where over 40% of traffic moves by bicycle. One of women interviewed in this film mentioned that when she moved to Amsterdam, she thought it was old fashioned that everyone rode bikes, but now she can’t image otherwise. There is also a common thread of cars being more trouble than they are worth.

It is truly amazing the quality of life that is achieved by changing the priority of transportation away from cars.
