Here is some data to get more accurate numbers:

  • max speed on that highway for cars is 80km/h
  • the bicycles had an average speed of ~18km/h

The speed limit used to be higher though, originally it was nonexistent. Point was to estimate what the highest throughput of people in cars that highway has ever seen.

Point taken, you’re correct.
