Ride Along is our popular feature where we join people from across the Portland region for their ride into work. In the process, we gain a better understanding of who’s riding and what type of conditions they face.
We’re looking for a new sponsor of this popular series. Please let your boss or manager know about this great opportunity. If you’re interested in working with us, please contact our sales manager Jonathan Maus at jonathan@bikeportland.org or (503) 706-8804.
