I gave you a little sneak peek last week, but now PDOT has released their full, 29-page, 2008 Bicycle Count Report (download the 11MB PDF here). In general, biking is way up all over the city. That’s not exactly earth-shattering, but some of the numbers and findings are quite interesting.

I don’t have time to get into many details, but below are the highlights.

And check out the spike in bike traffic (at left on graph below) at SE Harrison and Ladd Circle.
