  • The antidote to high-stress cycling like this is Mackinac Island off the Michigan mainland. The island lacks some of the infrastructure you'll find in many European cities but was still ranked the No. 1 most cycle-friendly city in the world thanks to its complete lack of motorized vehicles and the high percentage of "low-stress" bike routes .

Mackinac Island, Michigan, has been named the world's most cycle-friendly city by PeopleForBikes, a national cycling advocacy group. This accolade is attributed to the island's unique car-free environment, where bicycles are the primary mode of transportation. The island features 170 miles of bike-friendly roads and trails, including the iconic M-185, an 8.2-mile loop around the island that offers stunning views of Lake Huron. The infrastructure supports cycling with bike rentals, bike-friendly accommodations, and even horse-drawn carriages for those who prefer not to cycle. The island's commitment to preserving its historical charm while promoting sustainable travel has made it a haven for cyclists, offering a serene and safe biking experience.
