Make Better Biking in East Portland!

Our mission is to make biking in East Portland safer and more fun!

Please join EPAPbike to promote the best biking in East Portland! We meet every month and welcome your enthusiasm, energy, and ideas! Our meetings are at 6:30, every third Thursday, at Muchas Gracias, 1307 NE 102nd Ave.

Currently, we are working with the Portland Bureau of Transportation to implement over $20 million in bike & sidewalk improvements throughout East Portland over the next two summers, as part of the East Portland In Motion Active Transportation Implementation Strategy (EPIM).
