So I've been traveling a lot and noticing the bike infrastructure and number of commuters in each city. Unscientifically here's what I've found:

Columbus OH - Great MUP between downtown and the OSU area. Several commuters w/ panniers and fenders

Minneapolis, MN - WOW! tons of commuters and a MUP/dedicated lane system that seemed to go forever

Phoenix, AZ - Great dedicated lane system on the north side of town, didn't seem to get much use.

Denver, CO - Probably top 10 in the country on design and use

NYC - Surprising number of brave souls dealing with cabs and other traffic

Houston, TX (My home)- almost no one doing much commuting, but really not a bad town for it. there are some great MUPs and dedicated lanes, but they don't seem to connect up.

Where is everyone from and what towns have you seen that seem friendly?
