East Portland
We admit it: Our coverage over the years has skewed largely toward Portand’s central city and surrounding neighborhoods. That’s because it’s just where our reporters have lived and that’s where a lot of bike news happens.
But it doesn’t mean we’ve ignored everything east of 82nd. Not at all! We published 100s of stories on this part of the city and you can find them all below. (We’d love to cover this part of the city even more, so if you or someone you know wants to be a correspondent, please get in touch.)
