Turns out, Iowa has quite a thing for bicycles. 🚲🙌🏼

Bicycling is part of Iowa’s economy, our communities and our culture. We’ve got the data to tell the story:

🚲 An estimated 900,000 Iowans ride annually.

💰 Bicycling and trail use contribute an estimated $1.4 billion annually to Iowa’s economy, supporting 21,000+ jobs.

📍 Recreational cycling reaches all 99 counties.

🌳 Iowa has 101 rail-trails spanning 1,009 miles, plus 100+ mountain bike trail listings.

📅 More than 430 Iowa cycling events were listed on BikeIowa.com’s calendar in 2025. That’s an average of 36 per month, more events than there days in a month!

🎒 Iowa ranked 3rd nationally per capita for October’s Walk, Bike & Roll to School Day, with 100+ schools participating.

Iowans on bikes make a difference. Their miles have helped raise millions for cancer research, mental health services, human trafficking prevention and other causes.

You don’t have to ride a bicycle to benefit from bicycling in Iowa.

At the Iowa Bicycle Coalition, we’re working to make Iowa the best place to ride a bike. Safer places to ride. Stronger communities. More opportunities for everyone.

📸 Let’s put some faces to those facts. Drop a photo of yourself riding in Iowa, or leave a comment telling us your favorite Iowa place to ride. Small towns, city streets, trails and gravel roads. Show us your Iowa ride!
