  18. From Margin to the Mainstream 4 • Basic economic analysis: comparison of marginal costs and marginal benefits speak for investing in cycling – providing the highest ROI ratios. • The Cycling Economy concept, however, implies widening the frame of reference supplying arguments coming from outside narrowly understood economics • The Cycling Economy 2.0, the Human Rights Approach and “The Cycling Economy Grid” – bring it all together Cycling Economy – reasons for de-investing and (re-)investing in cycling mobility’ Dr PiotrKuropatwiński– University of Gdańsk
