What would you say to a U.S. Congressman?

In a few minutes I’m riding over to City Hall for a roundtable discussion about Portland’s bike scene with U.S. Congressman Earl Blumenauer.

He wants to know the latest and greatest on all the two-wheeled happenings.

One of his staffers has asked me to talk about,

“the intersection of bike policy, culture, business, safety, programs, etc. in Portland.”

Wow. That’s a tall order. Hopefully I say something that makes sense.

I’m curious. If you were in my position, what would you talk about (I realize I should have asked this question sooner)?
