We all know riding a bike to work is great, but bikepooling makes it even better. This is true especially for newbies who might need the buffer of a veteran (or just a friend) in order to start biking to work every day.
If you’ve never bikepooled, September is the perfect time to start. It’s Bike Commute Challenge month and in the spirit of competition, more folks than ever are getting to work on two wheels.
Southeast Portlander and PDOT staffer Kirsty Hall has planned bikepools each Wednesday this month.
