Cycling in Boston
Cycling in Boston has been a popular activity since the late 19th century for both recreation and commuting, and it has grown in popularity in recent years, aided by improving cycling infrastructure. It is especially prevalent around the campuses of the numerous universities in the city.
Different areas in Boston have varying degrees of bike friendliness. Until recently, the city of Boston has consistently been ranked as one of the worst areas in the country for biking. ''Bicycling'' magazine, in its March 2006 issue, named the city as one of its three worst cities in the United States for cycling, whereas Cambridge earned an honorable mention as one of the best cities for cycling with a population of 75,000-200,000.
== History ==
At the end of the 19th century, cycling was especially popular in Boston, and Outing Magazine at the time described Boston as "the bicycling paradise of America." The city's cyclists were pivotal in the formation of the national organization League of American Wheelmen, and Massachusetts had the largest per capita membership in the league in the 1890s and the largest percentage of women members.〔Finison, Lorenz J., (Boston's Cycling Craze, 1880-1900 ), University of Massachusetts Press, May 2014, Accessed: 25 October 2014〕
