Context
Train and bike; it is a successful combination. Nearly 20 per cent of train travellers cycle to the station, with top cycle destinations such as the train station of Antwerp-Berchem having a total of 38 per cent. The number of cycle parking spaces at Belgian stations has reached 77 000 and will probably exceed this number in the very near future. Folding bikes are also becoming common on Belgian commuter trains. Added to that, local bicycle renting schemes are gaining momentum and becoming more and more popular.
