Oh lucky cyclist! Welcome to the Platinum bicycling city of Portland, Oregon. Not only do cyclists here enjoy world-class street infrastructure to support cycling, but many organizations focus on advocating for cycling as a mainstream method of transportation, which means that cycling will only get better over time. Portland offers many support services for cyclists and it is easy to become spoiled quickly.
While there are many avid cyclists in greater Portland, there are large numbers of people who are interested in bicycling but are concerned about their safety or intimidated by their unfamiliarity with the rules and practices. This book is aimed at the recreational cyclist, especially families who are seeking fun, fitness, and healthy lifestyles.
The rides in the book are rated from one to five with details to help bicyclists choose rides for their interests and comfort.
