Headlines are quick hits from media outlets from Missouri and around the world. Follow the headline link for the full story. The source of this headline says:

Young adults want to ride more and drive less, and with defined border and high-density environments, university campuses are ideal settings for a bicycling lifestyle.

The Bicycle Friendly University (BFU?) program recognizes institutions of higher education for promoting and providing a more bikeable campus for students, staff and visitors. The BFU program provides the roadmap and technical assistance to create great campuses for cycling.

MoBikeFed comment: We currently have one Bicycle Friendly University in Missouri: The University of Missouri-Kansas City, which reached bronze-level BFU status in 2014.

We are looking for more Missouri colleges and universities to join UMKC. Which university will be next?
