May Is National Bike Month: How ‘Bicycle Friendly’ is Michigan?
Michigan dropped a couple of points in the state ranking this year.
Michigan ranks as 14th friendliest state for bicycling among the 50 U.S. states, down two places from 2013, in a newly released ranking by The League of American Bicyclists.
The Bicycle Friendly State ranking looks at legislation and enforcement, policies and programs, infrastructure and funding, education and encouragement and planning.
