    User-uploaded image for No More 4-Lane Roads! A BikeLoudPDX Protest Ride

    Time Fri, Jun 17, 2016, 5:00 PM

    Time details meet at 5pm to make signs, depart at 5:30

    BikeLoudPDX-sponsored ride in protest of pavement allocation. We demand more space for people, less space for machines! Four-lane roads create too many distractions for drivers and impede visibility. Crossing four-lane roads as a pedestrian or cyclist, even legally, is hazardous. The extra lanes should be used for bike lanes, bus-only lanes, parklets, wider sidewalks, anything but vehicle lanes. No more four-lane roads! This ride is not for children and first-time cyclists; we will ride safely, but will be taking the lane on major arterial streets during rush hour.
