Bicycle culture can refer to a mainstream culture that supports the use of bicycles or to a subculture. Although "bike culture" is often used to refer to various forms of associate fashion, it is erroneous to call fashion in and of itself a cuture. Cycling culture in the first sense refers to cultural climates cities and countries which actively support a large percentage of utility cycling. Examples include denmark, netherlands, germany, sweden, china bangladesh and japan. In copenhagen and amsterdam, in particular, 37% and 40% respectively of all citizens ride their bike on adaily basis. A city with a strong bicycle culture usually has a well developed cycling infrastucture, including segregated bike lanes and extensive facilities catering to urban bicycles, such as bike racks. There are also towns in some countries where bicycle culture has been an integral part of the landscape for generations, even without much official support. That is the case of ilhavo, in portugal.
