And Detroit too: Todd Scott is the director of the Detroit Greenways Coalition <http://detroitgreenways.org/>, a group overseeing the buildout of a 26-mile Inner Circle Greenway <http://detroitgreenways.org/inner-circle-greenway/> bike route that will bring access from some of the city’s interior neighborhoods to its riverfront. The organization works closely with the city on a project-by-project basis, and it charts the rise of biking. “Bike ridership is growing very fast,” Scott said. “Just in the past few years, we’ve gone from zero to 30 bike clubs, and Slow Roll Monday Nights has gone from 10 people to over 3,000 people. Not to mention that Tour de Troit started at zero too, over a decade ago.” http://www.routefifty.com/2015/10/bike-infrastructure-detroit/122950/ -- a Andy Bach, [email protected] 608 658-1890 cell 608 261-5738 wk
