People on Bikes: Sunny and warm Waterfront Park

See them in their full glory below…

Just over a week ago, Portland was given a sublime day of weather. It was sunny and warm. I didn’t even plan on doing a People on Bikes photo session; but as I rolled into Waterfront Park near the Steel Bridge and saw the amazing display of beautiful people rolling by, I couldn’t resist.

As I looked through the photos when I got home, what really struck me was the diversity of people and bikes. And I have to admit, the shirtless guys, the skirts and dresses, and the abundance of skin in general are also what made this session memorable.

As we wait for warm and bright days, hopefully the glow of the images below will hold you over…

Going on a diet.

On May 15th, the Lloyd Transportation Management Assocation (TMA) and the Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT) will unveil their plans to significantly alter the roadway design on NE Multnomah Street. Or in their words, give it a “transportation transformation.”

The open house announcement for this project — which we first reported on back in December — was sent out to stakeholders today. Here’s a snip from the invite:

Buffered Bike Lane with a bike symbol and arrow pointing forward

PBOT has declared May PDX Bike Month and they’re pulling out all the stops to make it a good one. They’ve got over 30 events listed on their website and they’ve got a new Twitter account and Facebook page to help promote them.

Here’s more from PBOT Transportation Options ringleader Timo Forsberg:

PBOT and many partners are kicking off PDX Bike Month – a series of events throughout the month of May. The first event is a Bike Breakfast on Wed, May 2. Be alert for the aroma of coffee and of eggs on the griddle on SE Lincoln St, just west of Cesar Chavez Blvd. Stop by between 7:15 and 8:45 for breakfast and a chance to celebrate National Bike to Work Month and International Walk & Bike to School Challenge Month, Portland-style.

You can also get a quick bike adjustment at the BTA’s Service Station (Wed. 4:30-6:30 in Ladd’s); go for an eye-opening ride with EPAPbike [East Portland Action Plan Bike Subcommittee] on “The Good, The Bad, and the Unimproved” (Sat. 10am-noon in East Portland); take in a Bike Legal Clinic (PSU’s Bike Hub on Wed. the 9th); and join us for another breakfast, on the NE Going Neighborhood Greenway on Wed, May 9th. Plus more breakfasts during the week of the 14th through the 18th.

This is not a drill folks!
