Friends on Bicycles

Many of my closest friends cycle on a routine basis. In fact, our outings are often made by bicycle. And my beau not only travels by bicycle most of the time, he also has a job related to bicycle infrastructure.

Sometimes I have to wonder - is that what brought us together? Would my social life be completely different if I lived in a cycling culture such as Copenhagen or Amsterdam? Is there something unique about Atlantans who have all chosen the bicycle as a preferred mode of transportation?
