In what types of spatial context do people most frequently use bicycles for commuting? How do commuters judge the quality of their cycled journeys? What are the most problematic aspects of these routes? Are there differences between regions and cities? A territory’s hosting potential for cycling—or its bikeability—refers to how receptive or well adapted, it is to the practice. In this chapter, we discuss two aspects of hosting potential: spatial context (cantons and types of municipality) and home–work journeys, first from the perspective of parking conditions, then amenities and infrastructure, as well as cohabitation with other road users.
