I was reading an article about which state in the United States has the highest number of people who walk or bike to work every day, and you would think it would be a place like Boston, New York, Los Angeles, Miami, or some other big city like that.
But no.
It was Alaska of all places. Alaska! What I found odd about it is that the state is pretty much mostly terrain with not a lot of development, does not have a high population of people, and it would seem things are farther apart than in any big city.
But Alaska won it out for having the highest number of people who walk or bike to work. Interesting.

wow, that's interesting. I know down in Davis California, There seem to be more bicycles than cars. It is a college town (University of California, Davis) and when driving there, one must keep an eye out because these bikers think they own the roads. They will pull their two wheelers out in front of a car expecting it to stop. Most of the time cars to yield right of way, but once in a while people get hurt.
