I live in Suburban Detroit lots of people are riding their bikes. In the city bike riding is exploding there is 45 miles of bike lanes and they are going to add a hundred miles this year.

American bicycle manufacturing is also popping up here. Shinola bikes made in Detroit are incredible, not cheap but just stunning. There are 3 other manufactures moving or have moved in. There is a monday ride meeting that 400 people show up for. There is critical mass on the last friday of every month where hundreds and hundreds of people show up.

So it is looking up here. I am very pumped up about the bicycle scene here.
