Beautiful Red Kona Mountain Bike with disc brakes. Front suspension only. Knobby mountain tires. Bought it from a place called Moutain Pedaler, there is a sticker that says that on the down tube. There is a water bottle holder attached on the down tube as well. Pretty new bike, got it last year (it’s a 2006)so it doesn’t have too much wear. Had a lot of mud splattered all over it from a previous ride.

The other day an email came in from a reader at a local company who was working with his admin department to develop benefits for bike commuters.
He figured since his company gave perks for using TriMet or carpooling, bicyclists shouldn’t be left out.
I forwarded his message to Michellle Poyourow at the BTA and she sent back a great list of ideas “off the top of her head” (wow).
I thought others might find the information helpful, so here’s the list…
In case you hadn’t noticed, local weekly newspaper The Willamette Week put out their Best of Portland issue today.
Inside are the results of their staff picks in a variety of categories and results from a Readers Poll that picked Portland’s best places, people and things (based on surveys from 2,178 readers).
Here’s a look at where bikes turned up in the Readers Poll.
The bike has a rack in the back, a water bottle holder, and attachments for a headlight and a tire pump. It was borrowed by a friend who used my cable lock instead of my u-lock, thus allowing the bike to be stolen. It was stolen between 1pm and 11pm on Saturday July 21. If you have any information, please contact me! I will give a $50 reward if it is found.

The Portland Development Commission (PDC) and the Portland Department of Transportation (PDOT) are throwing a public party in north Portland tomorrow night to celebrate the completion of the first phase of their Vancouver-Williams Transportation Safety Project.
The Portland Office of Transportation and the Portland Development Commission are joining forces to hold a Share the Road celebration at Dawson Park!
The event will celebrate the bike and ped projects already completed as part of Phase One along the corridor, as well as letting folks know what they can expect to see happen ped and bike-wise in upcoming Phases Two and Three.

Why not stop by on your bike ride commute home along Williams after work? We’ll have –
* free ice-cream for the first 400 folks!

PDOT staff, including the project engineers, will be on hand to hear your thoughts and answer your transportation questions about the Vancouver-Williams corridor; give information on what’s next in the pipeline to help improve conditions yet further for pedestrians & bicyclists; and get your feedback on speed in the corridor. We’ll have speed surveys for Vancouver-Williams available, as well as the Bicycle Transportation Alliance’s North/Northeast bike boulevard surveys, so you can give vital bicyclist feedback whilst you munch on that ice-cream!

Ever wanted to ride to the highest points in Portland but were afraid to try? Then this is the ride for you. No rider will be left behind and there is no shame in dismounting and walking if the going gets too tough. Of course, if you like climbing up hills a bit quicker, you can always go to the top, ride back down, and climb it again until the rest of us get there!
The first 4 miles will feel like they never end but the remaining 20 miles feature gently rolling hills and beautiful scenery followed by
an exhilarating ride down Germantown Rd, making those first 4 miles well worth the effort.
Please join us this Sunday 7/29/2007 for a ride that takes us up to Council Crest and out along Skyline Blvd as we circle Forest Park. Bragging rights awarded to all who complete the ride. For those more faint of heart, there will be an easy paced ECT ride scheduled for the same day. Details on that ride will be posted later this week.

Assemble Time – 10:00 AM
