[Mural designer Sara Stout with Hawthorne Auto Clinic owners Liz Dally and Jim Houser.]

Imagine...an auto clinic that believes so strongly in the health and safety of our streets that they put a mural full of pedestrians and cyclists on the wall of their parking lot.
At the dedication party last night [...]

etc. A distinguishing feature is that it has the nice curved handle bar
extensions, but [...]

I wrote that post out of frustration that ODOT was celebrating the 75 year anniversary of the bridge by touting the recent renovation [...]

If you haven't been in the presence of the inimitable Reverend Phil Sano than you haven't really experienced Portland bike culture. Rev Phil is a self-described bike culturist who's in the middle of many of Portland's bikey subcultures.

As I mentioned last week, P.K.—the embattled radio personality for KXJM whose recent on-air comments got him into some hot water—went for a bike ride with a local reporter.
Yesterday, a commenter tipped me off that he talked about this ride on his show last Thursday. I just finished listening [...]

I've been without an off-road bike in my stable for way too long. This is a big deal to me because back in the day I used to eat, sleep and breathe mountain biking.

[Sacrificing valuable floor space for bikes.]

The Ecotrust building in Northwest Portland is one of my favorite places to work; it's quiet, connected, and caffeinated.
It's also home to eco-friendly global retailer Patagonia. I passed by their storefront the other day and noticed an in-store bike rack and curiously bikey signage. I had to investigate.
