The Monday Roundup (on Tuesday)
Welcome back from the historic (and long) weekend. I hope you all got the chance to watch the inauguration festivities. If you didn’t, the big takeaways from folks in the bikeosphere are that Obama 1) walked on the new protected bike lanes on Pennsylvania Avenue and 2) mentioned climate change in a big way during his 20-minute speech. On that note, let’s get down to the news from the past week shall we?…
— If you haven’t yet reveled in the grandeur of seeing the first President to walk down a bike lane on inauguration day, Streetfilms has wrapped it all up with a bow for you.
— And as for that climate change mention, here’s more from the NY Times.
— Hopefully Obama makes the climate change/transportation/bicycling connection. We’ve certainly known about the vast negative impacts of cars in cities for a long time — even here in Portland. Local historian Dan Haneckow remembered architecture critic Ada Louise Huxtable, who warned Portland and the nation way back in 1970 that too many cars would ruin our cities.

I know it’s still frigid out there, but at least the sun is out. This weekend is expected to stay clear and sunny and there’s nothing like a brisk bike ride with friends to take the edge of your winter doldrums. Check out our three two weekend ride picks below for some ideas and inspiration…
Local shop Western Bikeworks kicks off their 2013 monthly ride series with an easy and flat 25-miler. The ride will leave from the shop NW 17th and Lovejoy) at 9:00 am led by none other than Maria Schur (trust us, she’s great). Everyone that shows up will get a $5 gift card and Maria tells us each month’s ride will build in distance and difficulty toward an overall goal to be “century-ready” by early summer. “It’ll be good for newbies or anyone wanting to shake their winter cobwebs off!” — Sorry folks… This ride is next Saturday the 26th.

The event, which they’ll publicly announce next week, is being billed as, “an opportunity for families, new cyclists and experienced riders to buy and sell their cycling gear.”
The BTA is partnering with the Community Cycling Center and the Bicycle Show’s organizers, Pedal Nation Events. The BikeSwap will be a benefit for both the BTA and the CCC. Is it just a bike swap meet? Not exactly. Check out what makes it unique:
