[The Zoobomb Pyle]
The Zoobomb Pyle—which Zoobombers call the “People’s Bike Library of Greater Portland”—is much more than a bunch of mini-bikes, it’s an icon that symbolizes one of Portland’s proud traditions.
It’s also an important part of the weekly ride that zooms from the Zoo into downtown. The bikes in the Pyle are loaners which Zoobomb maintains for first-timers and others that show up without a bike.
The library system works well, and there’s even an official librarian. That post is currently held by Handsome Dave, who collects $5 and an ID from anyone who uses a “Pyle bike.”
