Around Chapel Hill: on a bike

Though it can be difficult to find a parking space in Chapel Hill, a car is definitely not the only way to get around town. Hundreds of cyclists traverse the area on a daily basis. Chapel Hill and Carrboro are home to at least five bike shops, multiple bike paths and non-profit organizations that promote cycling as transportation. In the first installment of our local transportation series, Chapel Hill resident Nathan Huening shares his experience getting around by bike.
