Marquette named one of best mountain biking towns

When people think of mountain biking destinations, they think of… Marquette? Yes, at least according to this list of top towns for mountain biking from USA Today.

Excerpt: It's been nearly 40 years since a small group of fun-loving tinkerers in Marin started racing down dirt roads on old cruiser bikes modified with fat knobby tires. Though mountain biking began as a fringe sport in the 70s, it's since evolved into an athletic outlet embraced by communities everywhere.

From the flatlands to the highlands, these top mountain bike towns are drawing riders of all kinds with amazing trail systems, bike parks, and pump tracks galore.

The whole list is available here.
