boo whoo - Minneapolis already has a ton of cyclists and bike shops galore.
 
If Bike!Bike! were really ambitious it would hold it's conference in a city that really needed some work as far as training and resources were concerned. Given that I'm from Louisville, Ky we could really use something big like that here.
 
Just my two cents. I'm on this list and I never comment, so now I'm going to.
