What: Bikestravaganza: Off the Chainring in Portland—Grand Finale!
When:Sept. 10th 7:00pm – 9:00pm
Where: Madison’s Grill: 1109 SE Madison Portland, OR
Event Details: Please join us for the final, hometown event of our grand tour of the upper western region of the U.S. On our tour, we’re using movies and pictures to tell the story of transportation activism in Portland, and hearing from locals what their bicycle scene is like and what they’re doing about it.
For our Portland event we’ll share some of what we’ve seen and learned—the best and the worst, the most harrowing and most inspiring, from Spokane to Reno, Cheyenne to Provo, Seattle to San Francisco.
Jonathan Maus will emcee the event and moderate a discussion about what Portland might be able to learn from the rest of the country when it comes to bicycling.
Boneshaker Almanac editors Evan Schneider and Melissa Reeser will join us as well for a spirited reading from their popular publication.
The Microcosm Publishing zine trike will be on hand for all your bicycle-themed book, zine, movie, and sticker needs.
$3-10 sliding scale at the door. Everyone is welcome to attend and participate in the conversation.
