Spending 4 days in Portland and riding a borrowed extended cycle everywhere was amazing. I loved, loved the clearly marked bike routes. I traveled from NW to NE numerous times for Oregon Manifest events with zero problems. We were riding through the heart of the city on Saturday night at 10 pm and felt totally confident. It doesn't seem like it would be that difficult for other cities to work with the cycling community to designate more bike routes and then to paint those awesome large bikes on the roadway so drivers would be aware that the street was a bike route. I am now throughly spoiled.
