Lots of great bike adventures were had over the weekend:

Yet another Portlander experienced the power of bicycles and the community. Savannah Teller Brown asked for help with a bike move and a healthy crowd (of bike move veterans and newbies) showed up to assist. With all manner of trailers, panniers, bungee cords and straps, they pedaled her stuff from SE Ankeny, up to NE Sumner, where a Cinco de Mayo feast awaited. :: See photos from Dat and comic photos by Aaron.

And if you think bike moves are great gesture of community, how about this. A group of cyclists, that came together on the Portland Bike Forums, met up and swept up the I-205 bike path (from NE Glisan to SE Foster). Bill from Lents said,

“We received many comments such as “good job”, “thanks” and one “I feel guilty” Hopefully the 205 bike path is a bit cleaner and all will experience less flats along the route.”

Reader Greg Raisman and friends set off to explore the Willamette Valley Scenic Bikeway from Champoeg Park to Eugene. The two-day, 137-mile journey looked like a spectacular ride. ::Check out Greg’s photoset. ::Learn more about the route.
