May is National Bike Month and Westside Transportation Alliance and other Get There Oregon partners in the Portland region are excited to announce the 2026 Bike Month Challenge. Hosted by Metro, ODOT, counties, cities, and community partners, the month-long online challenge is open to anyone living or working in the Metro region. Participants can win prizes by logging any bike trip (manual or e-bike) on the Get There Oregon website- whether for commuting or just getting around.
Starting May 1, Get There users can log bike trips to qualify for random weekly prize drawings, and grand prize drawings, or to hold the title of area Team Bike Month Champions. This year, we will give top trip logging awards to winners in four parts of the Metro region; Portland, Multnomah, Clackamas and Washington Counties. Join your work team or form your own team to compete, have fun, and win prizes.
We will be at employer sites and public events all month long to sign people up for the Challenge and encourage bike riding all year. Visit The Shift calendar for Bike Month Challenge events to find an event or pop-up near you. Get There partners will be offering trip-planning, biking and commuting tips and free give-aways at community events like Portland Sunday Parkways and Bike Beaverton.
