My idea to help w speeding: A city-sponsored “neighborhood pace car” program where volunteers get a placard/signage on car saying, “I’m going the speed limit. Are you?” Or just do it w city fleet vehicles. We just need to normalize going slow and folks will chill.

BikeLoud without BikePortland
A letter from BikeLoud Vice Chair Kiel Johnson

It has been two and a half months since one of Portland's greatest bicycle advocates stepped away. If someone ever builds a museum about bicycling in Portland, Jonathan Maus deserves a statue.

BikeLoud began 12 years ago in the BikePortland comments section, and of course Jonathan was there to cover that very first meeting. For more than two decades, BikePortland has documented, amplified, and shaped the story of bicycling in Portland in a way that few, if any, transportation publications or advocacy organizations anywhere in the country have. I still remember sitting in my college dorm room 20 years ago, feeling both informed and inspired by what Jonathan was writing and photographing. He didn't just report on the movement; he empowered all of us to become better advocates.

The story Jonathan has been telling for the past 20 years is a remarkable one. It's the story of neighbors and strangers coming together around a simple idea: that bicycling makes Portland a better place. With this century-old technology, we have the opportunity to become better neighbors, build stronger communities, and create a city that is healthier, happier, and more equitable. Those streets, and that future, are ours if we choose to build them. Jonathan helped us see that we have the power to make that change.

I hope Jonathan finds a way to continue his work. But no matter what comes next, the movement he helped nurture will continue, because it belongs to all of us. We will keep showing up, keep organizing, and keep fighting for the vision of Portland that he helped so many of us believe was possible.
