My bachelor's thesis was in part about how foreigners treat Copenhagen as an amusement park on bikes, because they associate bikes not with traffic but with childhood games

That's funny if Americans actually do that. Can I read about this anywhere?

You could, but I'd dox myself. It's not uniquely American, it's moreso part of people coming from car-centric urban planning to places where bikes are an everyday part of traffic.
It's also not very well sourced it's basically on the basis of 40 tourists I interviewed. I was looking for an older study in the field of "the study of how people behave in public space" but I couldn't remember the name for the field in time and that made it nearly impossible to find the study. It studied how western tourists moved, physically, in India
