The Copenhagenize Report
Munich is determined to increase cycling levels, and is investing large sums in marketing urban cycling to give the bicycle a higher status among the citizens. Their infrastructure and facilities are respectable and the city continues planning for more. Generally, Munich brands itself sucessfully as a cycling city and is backing up the brand with action. Politics and planning also favour cycle traffic, so we envision more positive growth from this city in the near future.

Copenhagenize Fixes
After throwing so much money at marketing mainstream bicycle culture, it's time for the city to be even bolder and work toward creating a more visionary network of uniform bicycle infrastructure, including reclaiming space from car traffic. If there is a city in Europe that can rival Copenhagen and Amsterdam within the next ten years, it is Munich. If they want it bad enough.
