Because Davis places pedal power at the center of its governance, the plethora of greenbelts,  bicycle overpasses & underpasses, bike lanes and calmed down motorways that have resulted have made it not only a true bicycle heaven but a quality of life population center beyond compare. As home of the National Bicycle Greenway, it is the Davis, CA example that sets the standard for all the rest of the NBG Anchor Cities that connect our route from San Francisco to Washington, DC.
