The current issue of the always excellent Vancouver BC-based Momentum Magazine has some notable Portland coverage.
There’s a great story titled Bicycle Dream Date by local writer (and much more) Mykle Hansen. Its a great account of a full day on a bike and Hansen manages to weave in much of what makes life on a bike in Portland so, well, dreamy.
My favorite line is, “Biking in Portland is like being gay in San Francisco: it’s just normal.”
Hansen’s article is partnered with a full-page illustration by well-known Portland artist Shawn Granton.
Here’s August’s Agenda. Should be a good meeting. Hope to see you there.

In a meeting room nine floors above Pioneer Courthouse Square in downtown Portland, bike lawyer Mark Ginsberg hosted a mini-summit Thursday between representatives of Zoobomb and the Traffic Division of the Portland Police Bureau.
For many Generation X’ers, BMX bikes were the gateway drug into a lifetime love of bicycling. I can still remember following my older brothers to the local dirt jump track and coveting brands like Hutch, G.T., and P.K. Ripper.
That’s why this event poster pinned to the door of The Recyclery in southeast Portland caught my eye.
The event is being put together by members of a popular, locally-based BMX website, BMXMuseum.com (I wrote about it last year).
The Fashion and Style section of today’s New York Times features a gear test of family biking products.
Chosen as testers and photographed for the story were Portland couple Nick Fenger and Karen Werstein along with their 2 year-old son Max and his friend Aidan Kinney.
I love the introductory blurb that accompanies the photos:
Gray Gary Fisher Tassjara XL with old black blackburn rack.
