Cycling for Whatever State You're In

Our home state of Colorado came in 7th in the 2015 ranking of Bicycle Friendly States published by The League of American Bicyclists.

The bikeability of every state is graded on each of the following five categories concerned with the safety, accessibility, and sustainability of bicycling:

1. Legislation & Enforcement
   
2. Policies & Programs
   
3. Infrastructure & Funding
   
4. Education & Encouragement
   
5. Evaluation & Planning

See CNN's story on this landmark annual report for more about what makes a state bicycle-friendly like Colorado.
