Madscott, I think Jen was asking about marked bike lanes, in the streets, rather than the multi-purpose type trails.

Last time we were in the Twin Cities, perhaps we were just not in the right places at all, but as relatively new bike riders, like commuting and such, we noticed what we thought was a stunning LACK of marked lanes for bikes!

(Here in Boise, they disappear at all kinds of nasty places, but we sure have lots of them!)
