Paved bicycle and pedestrian paths crisscross Seattle’s undulating urban landscape, offering access to almost every neighborhood by the city’s 22 miles of bike lanes.

“It’s a pretty cool [biking] scene in Seattle. I’m from Southern California and there’s a lot more of an urban biking scene here,” said Josh Squier, a mechanic at Recycled Cycles, the Boat Street bike shop specializing in used and retro parts.
