Cheyenne maintains designated bike lanes on selected arterials plus the Greater Cheyenne Greenway shared-use trail network. Cyclists must follow Wyoming traffic law and yield to pedestrians on multi-use paths.
The Greater Cheyenne Greenway is the city's signature non-motorized network, a multi-use paved trail system used by cyclists, runners, and walkers connecting parks, schools, and commercial nodes. On-street bike lanes exist on select arterials such as portions of Pershing and other corridors identified in city bicycle planning. Cyclists are governed by Wyoming Statutes Title 31 vehicle code, are required to use lights at night, must signal turns, and yield to pedestrians on shared-use paths. Cheyenne does not require bike registration. Sidewalk riding rules vary by location, particularly in the downtown business district.
Riding without required nighttime lighting, failing to yield to pedestrians on shared paths, or violating downtown sidewalk-riding rules can result in standard traffic citations or warnings.
