We came in .1% behind Portland in a Rutgers University study into which North American city is best for biking. The percentages are a little bit baffling; I’m not sure if they’re saying that’s how many people cycle in each city or if that’s the measurable amount of bike lanes vs streets. Either way, I would argue that Minneapolis is way less bikeable than Portland due to our extreme cold temperatures, but the fact that we put so many bikers on the streets in winter shows our commitment. If Rutgers had done a study on which city has the most cycling badasses, Minneapolis would have won by a wide margin.
