Hello!
I think Iowa City is a nice example of a smaller community (it balloons with student populations) but an active bike population.

hey ThinkTank,
somewhat separate from my work at Troy Bike Rescue, I am part of an appointed citizens committee on alternative transportation (an idea our city is just sort of coming around to). we have 0 bike lanes, few bike racks, and about 11 sharrows (under a year old).
our task is primarily research-oriented, and I am searching for comparable cities and hoping the ThinkTank might help me. Do any of you have suggestions of cities with the following characteristics:
-population: 50 - 100,000 -small "bike culture" community -sizeable low-income population -investing time/money/energy into bicycles as a way of turning the city around. -demonstrable progress on that front
i know they are out there, but most examples are of much bigger cities.
I appreciate any suggestions! Thanks!! Andrew
