It’s been a while since we’ve done this, but you should know the drill by now.

What are your plans for the weekend?

Will you learn about local flora on the Wintertime Palm Tree Ride? Or perhaps the opening weekend of the Vanport Kermesse Race Series out at Portland International Raceway is more your style?

On Sunday, you’ll have a rare chance to talk to U.S. Congressman Peter Defazio (who happens to be the Chair of the House Transportation Subcommittee). He’s throwing a party to support City Council candidate (and daily bike commuter) Jim Middaugh at the Lucky Lab (916 SE Hawthorne) starting at 5:30.

After schmoozing with politicos, there’s the weekly Zoobomb! which meets at 8:30 across from Rocco’s Pizza (949 SW Oak).

And how about some of our out-of-state readers? What’s going on in your neck of the woods?

The girls and I plan see some snow tomorrow and I just put together an absolutely stunning new bike that I can’t wait to pedal around on (hint: it’s full-luxury and it’s direct from The Netherlands).

Have a great weekend, and remember to share your adventures in the comments below…
