BikeLoud leaders Shawne Martinez (left), Vivek Jeevan, and Bike Buddy Manager Nikki Margarita Enriquez at Portland Sunday Parkways. Today is the first day of Week Without Driving and BikeLoud wants to help you take part. A few years ago I led a BikeLoud Policy Ride to social service organizations in downtown Portland. A Week Without Driving isn’t a disability simulation or a test of how easily you can find alternatives. You can help your friends and neighbors join the movement by becoming a BikeLoud Bike Buddy or simply by being a great example of how liberating it can be to live your life carfree.
