I wish we had more bike-friendly infrastructures on France, right now everything is still adapted to a car-centered lifestyle...
It's never fast enough but we have the LOM law though : https://www.ecologie.gouv.fr/loi-dorientation-des-mobilites
Each time you launch road works.you have the obligation to take into consideration bike lanes.
My Hometown here in Germany lost out on about 3 Millions of funding for bike infrastructure in the last decade, because no one in the city government felt responsible to plan any infrastructure in the transportation department.
As a Dutchie in rural France atm, is way too hily here and the nearest supermarket is a fifteen minute drive away. I couldn't do my shopping by bike like back home even if I tried.
True that, I always forget this factor.
