The Bicycle Transportation Alliance opened its new offices (618 NW Glisan St) to the public last week for an evening of food, bicycles, and fun. The evening featured hors d’oeuvres from Madison’s Grill and beer from Hopworks.
Guests also got to meet local bike builders and get an up-close look at award-winning Oregon Manifest entries from Pereira Cycles, Tsunehiro Cycles, Cielo Cycles, and Signal Cycles.

The BTA had an array of signs on-hand and encouraged attendees to have their picture taken with them…

In addition to showing off their offices (and an excuse to have fun), the BTA also wants to draw attention to their inclusion in the Willamette Week’s annual Give Guide.

Where is it?
not far from their previous location, but without the street level frontage on the transit mall. this space is several floors up in a secured building on glisan betw. 6th and broadway. no walk-in traffic.
If you want to walk in to our new office just dial #41 on the phone downstairs. I was out of town for the open house, looks like it was a good time!
looks like it was a good time… I was going to go then I forgot and other shiny things always come up…
