Portland's rider share is substantially higher than other states but their accident/fatality rate is much lower.

I don't understand your comment- is your implication Portland's riders are at a greater risk than those in other cities and states- and what statistical analysis do you have to support such an opinion, if that is indeed the point you are trying to make?

what is the purpose of your comment in the midst of the on-going discussion of this thread?- it reads more like a non-sequitur to me than a contribution- is that your point? I don't get it. Please illuminate.
