Boulder - 4.0%

Wow, New Orleans at #11. There are a lot of bikers here for sure, but the rank is surprising considering the near-absence of bike lanes and the terrible, terrible pavement.
|
1.9% in Austin. Almost 5 times the share of the next city in Texas, but it's still pathetically low.
Anyway, I've ridden 66 miles this week, and I'll likely have to ride a few more this weekend. |
Probably been posted before, but it's so true in Portland, a handful of the cyclists have become law-entitled pricks.

It's a college town, but they have Ann Arbor at 4.9% (14.% walking).

We've gone up .1% in 5 years! Woohoo LA

New Orleans just below Seattle is surprisingly high to me. I would have guessed it would be somewhere between Tampa and Miami due to the climate.
