In the Netherlands (where I am from) the genders are far more 50/50 (as in who rides bikes). Given this piece is about a place in the US, the solution probably lies for a major part in better infra and far more civil drivers.

Yeah. In Germany it's like 48/52, even without the great infra that you guys have.

Down to 17% seems very low and worth writing about imo, makes it really obvious that something's off. Especially if portland is considered a relatively bike friendly place for north america if i remember that right.
