Bicycle Friendly CommunitiesThe League of American Bicyclists just announced their Fall 2015 honorees for Bicycle Friendly Communities, and two Kansas communities have been honored.

Shawnee renewed its bronze-level BFC status, while Leawood earned an “honorable mention” from the League.

There are currently three Bicycle Friendly Communities in Kansas: Lawrence, Manhattan, and Shawnee, all at the Bronze level.

In Fall 2011, Leawood made the “Honorable Mention” list (so it hasn’t moved up over the last 4 years). Other Kansas Honorable Mentions include Topeka in Spring 2013 and Wichita in Spring 2015.

Regionally, a few new cities from our region have cause to celebrate, having become one of the 55 new and renewing Bicycle Friendly Communities:

  • Breckenridge, CO: Gold
  • Steamboat Springs, CO: Gold
  • Bettendorf, IA: Bronze
  • Conway, AR: Bronze
  • Northwest Arkansas – Benton and Washington Counties: Bronze
  • Omaha, NE: Bronze
  • St. Louis, MO: Bronze
  • Le Mars, IA: Honorable Mention
  • Marion, IA: Honorable Mention
