If you’ve been wanting to dust off your rig and ride to work, Bike to Work Day (May 16th) is the perfect day to start.
No matter what part of the city you live in, PDOT wants to make it even easier for you to make it happen. They’ve unveiled a map of six guided rides (below) leaving from all parts of the city and leading to breakfast and festivities at Pioneer Courthouse Square.
