Philadelphia has a lot of great bike shops. Yet despite this abundance of choice, for a demanding Philadelphia bicycle commuter, it still may not be enough. Many commuters have very specialized needs. That's why it's great to know that if you can't find a specific piece of commuter gear locally, like a bicycle commuter 's garment bag that really holds a three-piece suit or a reinforced laptop case that doubles as a grocery panier, you can find it online at Amazon's new Bike Commuter Store.
That a mass marketer like Amazon, has built a bicycle commuter section goes to show just how mainstream cycle commuting has become. And Philadelphia has played an enormous role in bringing about this change. According to a recent report issued by the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia, we have, per capita, more bicycle commuters than any other big U.S. city.
So Philadelphia bicycle commuters be proud of the way our city is helping to re-shape the national transportation landscape. And by all means take advantage of the new resources available to meet the needs of the growing number of cycle commuters like us.
