The Oregon Bicycle Constructors Association (OBCA) has announced preliminary details for their 2009 Oregon Handmade Bicycle Show.
According to Andy Newlands of the OBCA, their show will happen on Halloween weekend, October 31st – November 1st. The two day show will be open to the public and will feature handmade bikes from around Oregon and beyond. Newlands says “selected bicycle businesses will also be displaying their wares.”
Also planned for Saturday night (10/31) is a costume party with food and beverages supplied by Hopworks Urban Brewery. The venue is TBA but is likely to be in the northwest industrial area.
And, in case you’re wondering who else is part of the OBCA, here’s a list of their board members:
-
Dave Levy, President, (TiCycles)
Keith Anderson, Vice President (Keith Anderson Cycles)
Eric Estlund, Secretary (Winter Bicycles)
Andy Newlands, Treasurer (Strawberry Cyclesport, Inc.)
Ken Wheeler (Renovo Hardwood Bicycles)
The OBCA hosted a very successful and well-attended bike show at the World Forestry Center in Washington Park back in November of 2007. See our coverage for a full report and photos from that event.
