I’m currently taking the Traffic and Transportation class at PSU. Each week we get to hear various transportation bigwigs talk about their piece of the puzzle. So far we’ve had presentations from key people at Metro, TriMet, and PDOT. I’m looking forward to upcoming talks by Roger Geller and Transportation Commissioner Sam Adams.

530 companies take Bike Commute Challenge
A whopping 530 companies took the BTA‘s 10th Annual Bike Commute Challenge. That’s a 22% increase from last year and according to the press release, this represents more than 1600 new bike commuters! Those are impressive numbers.
All kinds of workplaces participated in the Challenge – from congressional offices to landscaping businesses, health care companies to environmental nonprofits, and some of the state’s leading companies, including Intel and Hewlett-Packard.
Check out this quote from the BTA press release:
