New Bicycle Friendly State Ranking Released 

Washington Continues Reign as No. 1, But Top 10 Gets a Shake Up 
 
Washington, D.C. -- May 1, 2013 -- On the first day of National Bike Month, the League of American Bicyclists has released its latest Bicycle Friendly State ranking.
 

For the sixth year in a row, Washington continues to lead the nation, with high performance in all categories. But up-and-coming states -- including Delaware, Illinois and Arizona --  charged up the ranking in 2013, shaking up the top 10.

 

"We are encouraged to see significant progress in top states like Washington, Delaware, Colorado and Oregon," said Andy Clarke, president of the League of American Bicyclists. "But as the scores clearly highlight, there's much work to be done in critical areas like infrastructure and planning in every state."

The 2013 Bicycle Friendly State ranking is now even more comprehensive, capturing more information than ever before and delving more deeply into the issues embedded in becoming a more bicycle friendly state.

 

The BFS program is more than an annual assessment. Throughout the year, League staff will work actively with state officials and advocacy leaders to help identify and implement the programs, policies and campaigns that will improve conditions for bicyclists.

  

Delaware took a leap in the 2013 ranking, moving from No. 10 to No. 5 in just one year. U.S. Senator Tom Carper (D-DE) praised Governor Jack Markell, the state legislature, congressional delegation, advocacy organizations and the people of the First State for prioritizing biking.

 

"Creating more walkable and bikeable communities boosts air quality by reducing the amount of time cars and trucks idle on our roadways releasing harmful emissions." Sen. Carper said. "Biking also helps decongest our transportation system, allowing individuals to spend more time working or relaxing with their families instead of wasting time and money sitting in traffic. The benefits of biking are countless, and that's why I'm proud to support dedicated federal funding for biking and walking infrastructure, as well as the efforts of the League of American Bicyclists and others to promote biking as an invaluable piece of the American transportation system."

 

Also making a strong showing in this year's rank is Colorado -- and Gov. John Hickenlooper says he plans to be No. 1 very soon.

 

"An important part of making Colorado the healthiest state is encouraging people to be more active in their everyday routines," Hickenlooper said. "We're proud that our bicycle-friendly policies have skyrocketed Colorado's rank up 20 places in just five years, and we are committed to being No. 1 in the near future."

 

In the Southwest, Arizona moved back into the top 10. Among other strides, the state completed its Bicycle Safety Action plan to improve bicyclist safety on Arizona's highways.

 

"The goal is to reduce the number of bicyclist fatalities and injury crashes with motor vehicles," said Michael Sanders, Arizona Department of Transportation's bicycle and pedestrian program coordinator. "We 'crash-typed' nearly 750 reported crashes that occurred over a five-year period to better define the sequence of actions leading to the collision. For example, we found that over half of all crashes occurred while a motorist was making a right turn. The Plan consists of action items addressing potential changes to policies and education programs, or new tools, such as bicycle road safety audit guidelines, to improve bicyclist safety."

Welcome to Souhegan Cycleworks (SCW if you prefer) online at the easy to remember 603sports.com (603 is the area code for NH ;-)

SCW is Southern New Hampshire's Professional choice for bicycle service, repairs and fittings. Our employees are not top racers but are real people just like you. We LOVE to ride and it shows. Everyone who works here has a passion for cycling, just ask them and they'll tell you what they love about riding.

SCW was born out of frustration of the quality of expertise, knowledge and service levels of the local shops in Southern NH. Shop Owner Bob Hall is an avid mountain biker who loves to get off the beaten path seeking out adventures at his own pace. When Bob was laid off from a High-Tech management position just before 9/11/01, he saw the job market for the near term was going to be tight in high tech so he jumped ship.

With a desire to bring to his customers the level of service and respect they deserve (and were not getting in Southern NH), SCW opened shop in 2002 with Professionally trained mechanics and staff who understands the realities of the real world. We are not racers, we love to ride bikes, we appreciate quality products and expect SUPERIOR service in all aspects of or lives -- and so should you.

Stop in today to see our selections of bikes from Yeti, Bianchi, Rocky Mountain and Raleigh. Our goal is to get you excited about this great sport we love. If you need ideas for riding from family rides to cross country adventures, just ask. We'll do our best to point you in the right direction.

If your bike needs repairs, bring it to the place where you can trust the person working on it to do the right thing and get the job right the first time. That's what Professionals do.

EXPLORE OUR WORLD. GET ON YOUR BIKE AND RIDE!
