"The province of Quebec, where more than 1,800 miles of bike paths are either built or are well into the planning stages, is one of North Americas leaders in showing how bicycles can be an integral part of a 21st-century transportation system. Though the bikes presence may not be as great as in Germany, Denmark, Holland, or China (where pedal power never died out), it has rebounded from near oblivion in Quebec to become an increasing part of the culture."
