More and more people are biking to work, and rental bike stations are popping up on street corners across the USA. For economic, environmental, and physical health reasons, biking is becoming an increasingly popular mode of transportation. Plus it's faster than walking and you can bypass traffic, so what is there not to love? Bicycling magazine recently ranked US cities for bike friendliness based on a four-point cumulative business score from the League of American Bicyclists, amongst other factors. In honor of National Bicycle Day on April 19, here are the 30 best US cities for cycling enthusiasts.
