Local bike accessories’ maker Portland Design Works (PDW) is heading up a fun event for the 3,100 or so people who bike on North Williams every day: Rider Appreciation Day! For PDW’s RAD, a bunch of businesses along the street are inviting in commuters for “tokens of appreciation,” which I will interpret as “presents!!” Stop by the street on your ride home tomorrow.
