Milwaukee is Moving Forward with New Bicycle Plan

Jul 14th, 2010 | By Dave Reid | Category: Bicycling, City of Milwaukee, Feature

Milwaukee’s first bicycle plan came out in 1993. Since that time the city has realized most of the plan’s major recommendations and has added over 115 miles of bicycle lanes and routes to the city. The new plan lays out a Vision for Milwaukee 2020. That would include adding over 170 miles of new on-street bike infrastructure and almost 7 miles of new paved trails.

It’s Bike to Work Week in Milwaukee!

Jun 7th, 2010 | By Dave Reid | Category: Bicycling, Neighborhoods

There’s certainly a belief in the U.S. that biking to work is difficult, that there won’t be any place to lock your bike up, or that you’ll be smelly, but the truth is that it can be fun, easy, affordable, and healthy. Even if it just once this week, give it a try as biking to work might just be the most fun you have all summer.
