Passing along a call for volunteers from a reader:
The Village Bicycle Project has been given more than 100 bikes by the Portland Police Department. On Thursday the 26th we will process and load, before continuing to Seattle. Help is desperately needed to remove pedals, turn bars and load the van. Some bikes may be unsuitable for shipping and we’ll want to take some parts from them. Any help you and your friends can provide will be most appreciated. The address is 2619 NW Industrial St, #B4, about 2 miles from downtown. We start at 5 PM, continue till dark, and start again in the morning if necessary. RSVP to Dave at 509-330-2681 to let me know if you can make it. Please pass this on to all your friends!
