@lkanies I should have done the same but Barnes Rd and 217 is a hellish place to ride. Still, driving back from Beaverton took 15-20 min longer than it would have on a bike.
@enobacon I honestly am completely mystified about where you ride and why, so I never know whether or how to make claims about whether you should ride.
I have spent a weird amount of time riding in SW, for someone who has only lived on the east side. But… I have not put your situation together.
@lkanies it was nice today, indeed. I'll often ride from Hillsdale to Beaverton (either on BH-Hwy or Multnomah + fanno creek trail), where I have house and tree maintenance to do, but had other errands with it today and everything in that part of the metro is a shitshow of stroads and freeway offramps. I'm also low on cargo bike battery capacity for that 20-ish miles, and there's the issue of how to lock a bike full of tools outside home depot, I tend to just roll it in and use as the cart.
