New census data highlights areas of the country where people are more likely to strap on their helmets and bike to work.
Nationwide, more than 777,000 people rode bicycles as their primary means of traveling to work last year, according to the Census Bureau’s 2011 American Community Survey.
In most areas, cyclists accounted for only a small share of all commuters.

Cyclists accounted for 0.53 percent of commuters in 2010 and 0.55 percent in 2009, according to the survey.
