Timur Ender is a leading candidate for Portland City Council District 1 (East). He invited me on a 12-mile bike ride around his district to show me projects he helped implement in his previous job at the Portland Bureau of Transportation, to share why he's running for city council, and to explain his vision for how transportation infrastructure can be a vital part of making east Portland an even greater part of our city.

This episode was recorded almost entirely as we pedaled on a loop from NE 102nd and Glisan to SE Powell and 162nd, then back north to Glendoveer Golf Course. We saw all types of infrastructure and had a really interesting conversation.

Come along with us to learn more about Timur and the east Portland district he hopes to represent.
