Car Less Ohio

Promoting the bicycling lifestyle in The Buckeye State

Bicycle Friendly America

The League of American Bicyclists, who normally evaluate cities and award various levels of “Bicycle Friendly City” designations, has published a ranking of US states. Go to:

http://www.bikeleague.org/programs/bicyclefriendlyamerica/

Click on a state to see its ranking a description of the reasons behind each ranking. A list of bicycle friendly cities in each state, if any, is provided with each state listing. 

Ohio ranks 34 out of 50. Reasons for Ranking: Ohio has a routine accomodation policy adopted in 2005, but no bike master plan and bicycling enforcement is not a police academy or POST training requirement.

Currently there are no cities in Ohio that have been designated as bicycle friendly communities by the League of American Bicyclists.
