League of American Bicyclists recently published an
analysis of bicycling in U.S. cities for 2012.
The report, “Where We Ride,” examines “changing commuting patterns and transportation choices.”
Minneapolis is listed among cities with the most bicyclists on the street.
When it comes to the number of bicycle commuters Minneapolis has, the city ranks second to Portland, the report shows.
The report also analyzes the impact of factors like population, bike/walk/transit-share programs, female bicyclists, age, college towns. and more.
One finding is that “More and more Americans are realizing that bicycling is a practical, reliable, and economical means to get to and from work -- and it’s also healthy and fun,” the report states.
