Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I think I must be confused. Don't we just have Swamp Rabbit Trail and then a small handful of bike lanes through the city? If that's it, I'm not sure how that's qualifying.

Side note, I'm from Colorado where bike trails abound so I'm always confused by all the hoopla over all the "trails" here. Am I missing something? Please educate me.

Look at other cities in the south of similar size with their bike trail systems and then you'll see why it's qualifying.

When you say "similar" sized cities, are you speaking of 60k or the true size of Greenville? Comparing Greenville to cities that are truly the size of 60k isn't fair to those cities is it?

Lol, well the biggest city on that list is only 75k. It's like winning the 150lb class when you really weigh 225lbs. I don't want to win that way. Put me in my class.
