🚨 Please note that BikePortland slows down during this time of year as I have family in town and just need a break! Please don't expect typical volume of news stories and content. I'll be back in regular form after the new year. Thanks. - Jonathan 🙏

Even with fall upon us and some torrential rains over the weekend, there were still plenty of good times on bikes to be had last weekend. Like last week, I thought I’d recap some of the events with a front page post so those of you that missed out can experience some of the fun.
Park(ING) Day on Friday was a big success, with well over 30 parking spots throughout the region being turned into parks for the day. At Metro’s park on NE Multnomah, people enjoyed picnics on the grass that stretched across two parking spaces. Check out the report on Metro’s website.

This just in from the Portland Police Bureau (apologies for the brevity but I just landed in Las Vegas at Interbike. I’ll update the story when I can):
PORTLAND POLICE INVESTIGATE TWO BIKE RIDERS STRUCK BY THE SAME VEHICLE
At approximately 8:00 a.m. this morning, September 21, 2010, Portland Police responded to an accident involving a bike rider who was struck by a vehicle in the area of northeast 1st Avenue and northeast Multnomah Street. The vehicle was described as a silver Subaru WRX. The vehicle did not have a rear plate and may have a temporary sticker in the back window. Witnesses said there was also a green sticker in the back window similar to a “Monster” drink type sticker.
Just before 9:30 pm on Monday night, a man riding a bike died while crossing the train tracks near SE Oak and Campbell Streets in Milwaukie (about seven miles south of Portland).
According to the Milwaukie Police Department, it was a southbound Amtrak train. On KGW‘s newscast tonight, they reported that there were several cars waiting at the train crossing arms (which were down) when “all of the sudden, a man on a bike rode past the cars and onto the tracks.” A Milwaukie police detective interviewed by KGW said the train was honking. There is no explanation at this time why the man on the bike continued onto the tracks.
