3. Stockholm
Scandinavian countries really lead the way with bike-friendly policies, and Stockholm is an ideal city for pedal power, even in winter. Dedicated bike lanes meander all around and it only takes about 30 minutes to traverse the inner city (faster than the subway!). Stockholm City Bikes have 3-day passes that let you borrow from 110 sites around town, plus various companies have bikes, mountain bikes and tandems for hire.
