    Organizer Roger Averbeck

    Time Thu, Jun 16, 2011, 5:30 PM

    Time details This is an out and back ride, not a loop, you can bail anytime.

    End time 8:00 PM

    A commute outside your comfort zone! Join SW Portland Active Transportation advocates on a bike tour of Barbur Blvd, aka Hwy 99W. The tour will highlight bike lane and sidewalk gaps, especially the dreaded Barbur Bridges, broad expanses of commercial driveways with left turn conflicts, perilous unsignalized crossings, numerous freeway ramps and the autocentric West Portland crossroads. Tour stops will discuss active transportation improvement designs and feasibility. We can stop and pay our respects at sites of several fatal crashes involving cyclists and pedestrians that occurred in 2010.
