More women cycling vs. men-in Netherlands

in the Netherlands. Whereas in U.S. more men (in general) cycle than women.
Netherlands reference seems to point to early 2000's.

Average Dutch man or woman over 65, does a bike trip every other day. (p.72). I wonder if this will change with next younger generations. (hope not)

And it's rare to see school buses in Netherlands. Children cycle to school.

As noted in a bk. that I'm reading, Pedaling Revolution by Jeff Mapes.

I'm reading a bk. that I bought as one of my birthday gifts for my partner. :p:D
