About Andrew

Hi there. I’ve been riding in Portland for dozens of years, and kept riding past those signs - Roadway Not Improved - and wondering what was down that street. Finally, I decided that someone should map all the gravel routes in Portland, and that I would try it! I want to launch not only this website, but a community-wide discovery and embrace of gravel riding. There’s nothing like gravel on a bike to give you that sense of adventure, a connection with nature and a break from the hustle and bustle of Portland. Join me!
