Earlier today, the BTA announced that Executive Director Evan Manvel had left the organization.
Now the BTA Board of Directors has named Scott Bricker as their interim leader.
According to the BTA Blog,
“Bricker has committed to leading the organization through the end of the year, when he and the board will evaluate the organization’s standing.”
Bricker is a natural choice for this role and I wouldn’t be surprised if he officially assumed the Executive Director position.

Manvel served two years as the Executive Director and oversaw considerable growth and change during his tenure.
From the BTA Blog:
“It’s been a thrill to see the BTA grow, and biking in Portland and around the state grow with it,” said Manvel. “Many thanks go out to our members, our volunteers, our staff, and our Board of Directors for contributing to that success.”

SW Bike Boulevards Project rides
Please Join Us to Improve Bicycling in SW
SWTrails is asking SW residents to help develop a similar bicycle boulevard system in SW. A preliminary map of possible routes has been developed, and we now need to identify the best low-traffic streets for bicycling. To do this, SWTrails is sponsoring a series of neighborhood bike rides to identify these routes. Each one will have a ride leader familiar with the neighborhood. These will be fun, leisurely rides that will last about 2-3 hours. Naturally, hills will be unavoidable, so ride for as long or as little as you like. During the course of the rides, you will be asked about which routes should be part of a bicycle route network in SW.
