"The fastest growth in bicycling is among the Hispanic, African American and Asian American populations. Between 2001 and 2009, those three groups grew from 16 to 23 percent of all bike trips in the U.S. Within those groups, the percent of trips taken by bike has grown much faster than in the white population."

Black owned bike shops like Spokes are a key reason for this growth. Photo by Dave Iltis
