Don't put the burden on people. Cities in the US are hostile to cyclists and even pedestrians.
They aren't all the same. See, of the 20 most bike friendly cities, the top 4 are in the Netherlands.
Which of course is because they have started to invest in excellent bike infrastructure decades ago, and made it a priority. So it isn't really putting the burden on people. I wouldn't expect people to bike in a hostile environment. But I hope we create friendlier environments.
