Seeing signs of Zoobomb

Have you seen those cool new wayfinding signs all over downtown Portland? I’ve seen them at various landmarks around the city, but I have to admit I was surprised to see this one…

OK, so I’m a few days late with an April Fools joke. I just couldn’t resist.

This was my favorite “bikey” April Fools gag. The sad thing is, I know people who would actually do this and insist it is the only correct way to do it:

Soon we will have our own one-of-a-kind custom rack with descriptive plaque anyway!

And by soon, I mean as soon as we hear back from the city, since we submitted our proposals and followed their requirements way back in december….
