frank - For people to cycle on the road, they need to feel safe while doing so. That means wide bike lanes on slower roads, and segregated cycle tracks on faster ones. And intersections that are designed for all users - which may mean painted bike lanes, bike boxes, bike signals, etc.

Basically there won't be much of a bike boom if cycling involves either narrow sidewalks or scary roads. The cities experiencing an increase in cycling as transportation are seeing it thanks primarily to infrastructure investment.
