Munich Germany bicycling

Some places are well known for their bicycling. Amsterdam is known for its preeminent cycling culture in general. Colorado & Utah are known for their mountain biking routes. Portland, Oregon is known as a city that supports cyclists.

But not many people connect Munich, Germany w/ bikes. However, that is about to change. With its impressive history, "high environmental standards," and a new focus on promoting bicycling, Munich may soon rise to the forefront.

Granted, it is a very busy, therefore congested, burg. But if you choose the right time and place, Munich could provide you with an extremely memorable bike ride.
