Redmond also serves as a hub for a number of other well-known businesses, such as Nintendo, Eddie Bauer, Cingular Wireless, and Medtronic Physio-Control. Redmond is also known as the Bicycle Capital of the Northwest due to the popularity of this mode of transportation throughout the area that dates back to the early 1900s.
