Shawnee, KS, receives LAB Bicycle-Friendly Community award
Wednesday, July 20, 2005
According to a Kansas City Star article:

Bicyclists seem to love Shawnee.

“There’s hardly a time when you don’t pass someone on a bike,” said Neil Holman, director of the Shawnee Parks and Recreation Department

And recently Shawnee was recognized for loving bicyclists back.

For the second time, the city has been designated a bicycle-friendly community by the League of American Bicyclists.
Shawnee, a city in the Kansas City metropolitan area, is currently the only city in Kansas or Missouri to receive the LAB "Bicycle Friendly Community" designation.

However, Springfield, MO, recently was awarded Honorable Mention in the LAB's Bicycle Friendly Community program--indicating that within a year or two, Springfield may receive the Bicycle Friendly Community designation.
