Bicycle culture can refer to a mainstream culture that supports the use of bicycles or to a subculture. Although "bike culture" is often used to refer to various forms of associated fashion, it is erroneous to call fashion in and of itself a culture.

It’s an individual thing that can vary from person to person, but it can also be heavily influenced by the cycling culture in many countries across the world. From providing a necessary mode of commuting to fostering a sense of community, the role of cycling can vary across different cultures, and is often woven into the fabric of society.
