states might be interesting too

Boulder
San Diego

I was impressed by Minneapolis' figures when it's compared to other US
cities with more cycling friendly climates. It means somebody there is
doing something right.

I was robbed this year. We didn't get any snow. Two years ago we had
some and I was out in it. There's a studded front all set to roll if
it should snow enough to warrant putting it on.

Towns -- especially smaller to medium sized towns -- that have large
universities located in them tend to be good bicycling areas.
