Clever Cycles, Portland’s soon-to-be-opening retail shop that will carry bakfiets cargo bikes and “a complete line of resoundingly practical biking gear” is showing signs of life at their location on SE 9th Ave., just south of Hawthorne Blvd.

Part of a Dutch bike invasion sweeping North America, this shop will complete a triangle of two-wheeled revelry; it’s just a block away from the Lucky Lab and their Bike Route Rye, and The Recyclery bike shop.

And with those bike loving Free Geeks close by, I think Clever Cycles will have one heck of a grand opening!

I haven’t heard the latest on the official opening day (the website says “June”), but I do know that Dean, Rachel, Todd, and Martina were working hard to remodel the space and get things ready. The sign looks great and I’m looking forward to taking a look inside…
