View Pure Sweet Hell at PSU tomorrow
The PSU Cycling Club is hosting a free screening of the cyclocross film “Pure Sweet Hell” at PSU tomorrow night (10/7).
Shot entirely on 8mm film, the film tells the story of cyclocross, which according to filmmakers Brian Vernor and Willie K. Bullion is “a sport that has emerged as bike racing’s punk rock cousin.” Here’s more from the film’s website:
Kids catch the spirit of Walk and Bike to School Day
Yesterday was International Walk and Bike to School Day and 25 schools from all over Portland took part in the event. I caught up with some of the action at Sunnyside School in southeast Portland and just like last year I was thrilled and inspired to see so many kids walking and biking to school.
Sunnyside was chosen as this year’s media school so the event was made more exciting by the presence of dignitaries like Mayor Potter, Commissioner Adams, TV cameras, and free goodies for the kids.
ODOT’s bike guy moves on after 22 years
[Michael Ronkin]
After a 22 year career with ODOT, Michael Ronkin is set to retire. Ronkin has been involved with ODOT’s bicycle and pedestrian programs since 1989 and is a nationally respected expert on designing streets for cyclists and pedestrians.
Co-workers and colleagues are planning a party at the end of the month to celebrate his career.
My first experience with Ronkin was almost a year ago when I posted about the infamous “wet paint incident.” Here’s the story: A couple on a tandem had slipped on the wet paint of a newly re-painted street. Concerned for the lack of signage and what they considered a safety hazard, they contacted ODOT but got the runaround.
