OUR COMPANY
At Pedal we put people on bicycles, then take them on an adventure to discover some of the great vistas, buildings, plazas, streets, pathways, landmarks, restaurants, shops, cafés, houses and natural beauty that makes Portland such a great place.
OUR TEAM
Our founder has been riding bicycles since his first hand-me-down Schwinn. He had a paper route at age 13, saw his first road biker a few years later and used money that was supposed to be for college to get his first road bike. Never liking to sit still and drive, he's dragged bikes to everywhere he's lived including Eugene, Rome, San Diego, Seattle, Zurich and now Portland. Todd has done bike tours all over the west coast, Canada and Europe. Todd started Pedal tours to provide visitors and locals alike the experience of the most bike friendly large city in America.
Scott grew up riding his 2 geared "Street Machine" through the humid neighborhoods of Meraux, Louisiana. Later he graduated to a 21 speed mountain bike which he often rode past the ruins of antebellum homes along the Mississippi River in Baton Rouge. Eight years ago, he found himself in love with Portland, Oregon and has been here ever since. On any given day you can find him cruising the streets of SE Portland on a black Long Haul Trucker.
Science still has not been able to determine whether David was born riding a bike or brewing beer. This Portland loving bike-a-holic rides his hot pink lighting bolt around town or his reflector monster on long distance tours. A Palo Alto Native, David moved to Portland 2 years ago to escape the looming computer uprising.
This Portland ½ blood native claims to be the fastest, smartest, coolest person on earth. Fortunately he is only a mere mortal. He rides a reflective candy cane that can turn women into fleeing gazelles. Sam Haffner’s nickname bikerobat comes from his amazing ability to do wacky bike stunts while under the influence of Sam Haffner.
Born and raised in Portland, Oregon. He used to be an aspiring chef, however felt burnt out on the industry and studied history. He spent the last two years teaching English in South Korea, but missed cycling and Portland so much, he had to return. When he’s not bicycling around Portland, you may find Jason hiking around Oregon or frequenting one of Portland’s many brewpubs!
An archeologist and true Portland enthusiast, Wendy is a fountain of local lore as well as an avid cyclist. When not cycling the busy streets of the city, she enjoys exploring Portland and spending time with her son, Linus.
A desert boy from Southern Utah and an accomplished artist, Brad now spends much of his time taking bikes apart and putting them back together. Proud to be a grease-monkey, Brad suggests that everyone "shred-gnar!"
Adriel is a 24 year old Oregon native who grew up in Salem where he learned to ride his first bike, a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle cruiser, and has been pedaling ever since. Truly falling in love with cycling while attending the University of Oregon, he established himself as a dedicated cyclist by completing the TransAmerican cycle tour after graduation. He found himself pedaling around Portland on a whim and is here to stay (for a while). If you can't find him in his garden or the local pub, he's probably running amok through the streets of Portland on one of his numerous bicycles.
