Portland

It's understandable why Portland is regarded as one of the bike-friendliest cities in the United States. The city was the first in the US to establish a bicycle master plan, and it has an astonishing 557 miles of bike lanes.

Portland is also home to a number of bicycle-friendly features, such as the largest bike parking garage in the whole world, which has room for 5,000 bicycles. It is simple to borrow a bike thanks to the city's many bicycle-sharing schemes.

Portland is still working on ways to make the city even more bike-friendly. Recently, they’ve started a program that offers residents $5 for every day they don’t drive a car. The hope is that this will get more people to start biking for transportation, and it seems to be working—the number of people biking to work in Portland has increased by 60% in just a few years.

If you would like to reduce emissions, get more exercise, and truly enjoy a reasonably safe urban biking experience Portland is a perfect city for you. The city’s infrastructure, strong bike culture and focus on alternative means of transportation have made it a favorite of cyclists.
