With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility: The E-Bike Edition

At Gorge Youth, we’re all about helping kids and families get where they need to go—safely, actively, and independently. That’s why we’re thrilled to highlight the work of Megan Ramey, the Safe Routes to School Manager for Hood River County School District and the creator behind Walk and Roll Club. Megan has long been a vocal advocate for safer infrastructure, biking education, and youth mobility. She combines a deep understanding of transportation systems with a passionate commitment to empowering kids to move freely through their communities—whether by bike, scooter, or foot. Through her Safe Routes work, she partners with city and county leaders to expand sidewalks and bikeways, leads bike safety instruction in local schools, and builds a culture where choosing active transportation is both safe and joyful.
