It’s the monthly First Thursday Art Walk in the Pearl District tomorrow and two items have come across my desk that might make the event extra special if you’re bike-inclined.
First up is the Spring Kickoff Party at Kalkhoff. Kalkhoff USA is a bike retailer that sells top-notch, electrified rigs made in Germany. Roll over to their showroom on NW 11th for a special get together. They’ll have a wood-fired pizza cart, wine, cupcakes from St. Cupcake and of course some tasty German beer. If you get tired of talking about e-bikes, Kalkhoff is featuring the art of Eva MacLowry.
A few blocks away, at NW 9th and Davis, you can see one of Renovo’s new wooden bikes they are making for Audi. KGW reported this morning that Audi of Wilsonville will show off one of the bikes at Urban Studio (935 NW Davis St.) from 5:00 to 9:00 pm.
