What are your wishes and dreams for bicycling in Portland?
What keeps you (and your friends and neighbors) from biking more?
What’s your pet peeve about biking?
Do you feel safe on your bike?
How can we help more people start biking for transportation, exercise, and fun?
Join hundreds of fellow cyclists at the bike gathering of the summer to discuss these questions and many more at the Portland Bike Summit on June 17th.
There will be inspiring speeches, hands-on workshops, performances by the Sprockettes, and a bike ride with the BTA.
We’d like to pack the room with friendly bicyclists who want to help make Portland better for bikes. Please join BTA staff and board at this fun and important event!
