that go along rivers or through parks, not functional paths that take riders to businesses and workplaces. The one area in
which the U. S. outstrips Europe's transportation efforts is in the number of buses and trains that allow riders to bring
bikes aboard.
There is one exception: Portland, Oregon. Portland is a model bike city in the U. S., putting into practice many of the same

1991 to 2008, Portland managed to more than triple the number of bike trips taken in the city.
For the United States to get serious about alternative transportation and solving the transportation crisis, many more
cities will need to adopt the strategies that have been so successful in Portland and Europe. City by city, we can make a
huge difference. Will your city be next? Think about how you, too, can get involved and be part of something big
