In last month’s newsletter we mentioned how riders participating in our after-school Bike Clubs were learning rules of the road and practicing their bike handling skills with the hopes of soon going on group rides. In the weeks since, they’ve graduated to riding on the road and have enjoyed traveling by-bike to all sorts of fun neighborhood destinations.

Through these clubs, kids discover that a bike isn't just a way to get somewhere; it's a gateway to memorable experiences and a tool for their own transportation independence, whether they're pedaling to school, heading to a friend's house, or exploring their neighborhood on their own terms. Bikes don’t have to be THE activity– they can be used to go play at the park or get an ice cream from the corner store… or even to stop to pet the neighborhood goats!

The bike shop will be closed this Friday, the 19th, in recognition of Juneteenth.

Stop by before then to get your bike ready for the weekend!

Portland’s bike-based scavenger hunt returns on Saturday, August 29th for a day full of exciting twists and turns!

Join us on a quest by-bike! A set of riddles, clues, side quests, and challenges will take you on a journey of Portland’s lesser known locales and landmarks. Ride with your friends or roll solo, either way you’re sure to have a good time. After all the clues have been solved and challenges accomplished, we’ll celebrate with food, drink, and a Primos Bike Giveaway at Lucky Lab Brewing.

Tell your friends, mark your calendars, and register today! Discounted Early-bird tickets are available now though 6/18.

But that's not all! One lucky supporter will win this super sweet Primos Mono gravel bike completely decked out with bags, accessories and education to get you adventure-ready.

You don’t have to participate in Cycle Quest to enter, but you DO need to be at the after party to win.

Cycle Quest is part of our effort to raise an additional $21,500 to provide free bicycles and services to 86 more community members. Every ticket purchased helps get us closer to making that a reality! If you can't make it to the event this year but still want to support our mission you can make a meaningful contribution in the “Make a Donation” section on the Rider Registration page.

With over 110 attendees, surprise special guests, and steep competition, this year’s Transportation Trivia was one for the books!

After four rounds of heated, deep-cut transportation-related questions, one team rose to the top. Congratulations to team CREAM (Cars Ruin Everything Around Me)-- our 2026 Transportation Trivia Champions!

Many thanks to all who joined us for this event– everyone’s presence and enthusiasm made this gathering truly special. We are deeply grateful to our regional community leaders, our generous sponsors, our inspiring speakers, dignitaries and the regional multi-modal community for making this event possible. It was truly inspiring to be in the same room with leaders advancing active transportation across our region building more livable communities.

Thanks to our community’s support, $21,349 was raised, effectively allowing us to help 85 more individuals access no-cost bicycles, bike education and safety accessories. If you didn’t have a chance to make a contribution at the event, you can still make a difference at the link below.

The Repair Hub is officially open for the 2026 season! We celebrated the occasion with a cookout, a bike giveaway for folks in the community, and doing what we always do best– fixing bikes. For more than a decade, the Repair Hub has been a place for folks in the surrounding community of New Columbia to access no-cost bike repair services and other resources to help people start, or get back to riding.

New for this year will be a series of community rides that start and end at the Repair Hub. Led by Natty, our Community Engagement Coordinator in North Portland, these rides are part of an ongoing effort to foster fun biking experiences by and for the community.

If you’re interested in volunteering at the Repair Hub, reach out to [email protected] to get involved.

Tonight is Transportation Trivia! We are, of course, excited to crown a new Trivia champion, but we're even more excited about what this event means to the communities we work with: connecting more people with access to bicycling-- children and adults alike!

Our goal of this year's Transportation Trivia Fundraiser is to raise $20,000-- enough support to provide bikes, gear, and education, to 80 new riders.

If you're not planning to attend the event this evening, you can still make an impact by making a donation directly on the event page linked below:
https://buff.ly/VYuOdbi

Today, we're asking you to help us connect one more bike and resources to a new rider. We can make it happen if just 5 supporters give $50 each!

Many thanks to our 2026 Transportation Trivia sponsors for powering our mobility!

Our goal for our Transportation Trivia fundraiser is to gather enough support to get 80 new riders in the saddle this year, and there are still 18 more riders depending on your support.

Providing people with the opportunity to experience the joy and independence that riding a bike brings is central to what we do. With freedom of mobility, a bike can unlock a world of possibilities! Just last week, a group of volunteers gathered to help us fix kids’ bikes that will be given away this year through our Repair Hub in North Portland. After 4 hours of concentrated wrenching, 21 bikes were refurbished.

This is just one small step in the process of getting people on bikes. The other part is making connections with community members and continuing to provide support and resources long after they have received bikes. This is what makes our programs special. It’s the continued support and long-term relationships with the communities we work with that make real change possible.

When you support our efforts of getting more people on bikes, your dollars go far beyond just paying for the cost of bicycles. Make a contribution to start making a lasting impact today!
