How cities are ranked

Every run is scored from the streets it travels: through nature 30%, views 5%, away from traffic 30%, longest nature stretch 15% and starts near a station 20%. Away from traffic is the share on paths and on roads up to 40 km/h on main roads or 50 km/h on side streets; a pavement counts as the road beside it. Before building anything longer we build one 5.0 km run from every station and start in the city; Typical is the middle score of those, so every part of the city counts once, however many starts we went on to build further from. Recommended is the middle of the runs the city's pages show.

How cities are ranked

Every ride is scored from the streets it travels: through nature 30%, views 5%, away from traffic 30%, longest nature stretch 15% and climbing 20%. Away from traffic is the share on paths and on roads up to 40 km/h on main roads or 50 km/h on side streets, or kept apart from faster roads by a cycleway, or in a painted lane on a smaller main road up to 50 km/h; a pavement counts as the road beside it. Before building anything longer we build one 20.0 km ride from every station and start in the city; Typical is the middle score of those, so every part of the city counts once, however many starts we went on to build further from. Recommended is the middle of the rides the city's pages show. Climbing is left out when cities are compared: a city's hills are a fact about it, not a mark of how good its rides are. The hilliest cities have their own table.

The best runs

The best run at each distance from each city, 10 at most.

How the distances are ranked

Cities are placed on their typical run at the distance: the middle score of every run we built there, recommended or not, so a city where we built more gets no more chances to top the list. Past 5.0 km we build only from the starts that did best at 5.0 km, and cities differ in how many those are, so at the longer distances this compares each city's chosen starts. The run shown is the city's highest scoring one at the distance.

The best rides

The best ride at each distance from each city, 10 at most.

How the distances are ranked

Cities are placed on their typical ride at the distance: the middle score of every ride we built there, recommended or not, so a city where we built more gets no more chances to top the list. Past 20.0 km we build only from the starts that did best at 20.0 km, and cities differ in how many those are, so at the longer distances this compares each city's chosen starts. Climbing is left out of that score, so hills neither lift a city nor hold it back. The ride shown is the city's highest scoring one at the distance.

Where each city stands out

Every city's typical route on each part of the score. The tick is the middle city; the city named is the one that does best.

The number in brackets is the city's rank on that figure, highest first. Nature is the share of what you reach that runs through parks, forests and along water. Low stress is the share of what you can ride that you reach the way most adults are happy to ride: on cycleways, on side streets up to 50 km/h, on main roads up to 40 km/h and in painted lanes on smaller main roads up to 50 km/h. Without lights a road is crossed when it is signed up to 50 km/h with at most 5 lanes, or up to 60 km/h with at most 3. A road split by a median, its two sides' lanes counted together, is crossed at any width up to 40 km/h. A faster or wider road is crossed only at lights. Cycling infrastructure is the separated share plus 50% of the painted lane share: cycleways, bicycle streets, protected tracks and paths shared with walkers that are signed for bikes. A city measured from fewer than 3 starts on foot, or as many by bike, is not ranked.

How it is measured

Ranked on the metres climbed per kilometre, the middle of the routes measured from every station and start, the same ones the city ranking reads. Small rises and dips in the elevation data are ignored.

The cities in this edition

How each city's routes are built and scored is on its own method page, for example Amsterdam's.
