Portland has seen a bit of snow in the past few days. Of course I’m missing all the fun down here in California, but through the wonders of the Internet I have come across a few photos and reports of intrepid Portland cyclists braving the conditions.
Check out Shawn Granton’s tale of his unexpectedly adventurous trip home. His advice for riding in the snow: “load up your saddlebags and keep a low center-of-gravity!”
And I just had this photo sent in to the BikePortland.org sticker gallery. It was taken in a backyard in the NE Alberta neighborhood.
What are your snow stories? I’d love to hear about your experiences biking around snowy Portland…
