City of Portland annual bike counts will include scooter riders for first time ever
The counts could help scooters and skaters form a more powerful political bloc.
🚨 Please note that BikePortland slows down during this time of year as I have family in town and just need a break! Please don't expect typical volume of news stories and content. I'll be back in regular form after the new year. Thanks. - Jonathan 🙏

As bike advocates learned long ago, you can’t start improving things until you start measuring them.
It’s marginalized, belittled and ignored, but people keep doing it because it’s practical, affordable and fun – and Portland is leading the nation in thinking about it as a useful form of transportation.
A new group for people who get around by skateboard says it’s the turn of another vehicle. A smaller one.
