Interbike report: A new kind of performance cycling gear

Outlier’s classy new wool caps

At Interbike, a lot of the best stuff never makes it to the main floor. One of the highlights of the week for me was heading up to an 11th floor hotel suite for a trunk show with a few small, independent companies.

There I met Matt and Muriel of Swrve, a small, hip cycling apparel company; there were also a handful of enticing retro-inspired t-shirts from two young companies. But I was there mainly to check out Outlier, a year-old New York company run by two men who make high end, tailored clothing that’s engineered for urban riding.

Abe Burmeister walked me through their clothing line. He and co-founder Tyler Clemens met when they were both regulars at two different locations of a New York coffeeshop, and both happened to talk to the same barista about their grand schemes of creating beautiful, tailored clothes which they could wear to
ride in all weather to professional meetings. She introduced them and Outlier was born.

Ride along in a Radio Cab-1

Bob Wagner has seen a lot from behind the windshield of his cab. For the 20-year veteran driver with Portland-based Radio Cab Company, dealing with the mix of downtown traffic is a daily task. And that task, according to Wagner, has gotten tougher in recent years with the influx of bicycles.

“The dynamic has changed,” he said, “just a few years ago there weren’t nearly as many bikes on the road. I also notice a much more broad cross-section of people on bikes compared to the old days.”

I ended up in the passenger seat of Wagner’s cab after Radio Cab contacted me. They wanted connect with the bike community. Why would a cab company be interested in me (or the Bicycle Transportation Alliance, whom they also contacted)? I asked Wagner the same thing.

Eugene revamps an old bike box, but advocates aren’t satisfied

opportunity when they decided to not color this
bike box green.

Not many folks realize that when it comes to bike boxes, Eugene was way ahead of the game. They installed one on High Street at 7th Ave. way back in 1998. That bike box was recently re-painted by the Department of Transportation, but instead of celebrating, some advocates are disappointed.

Shane Rhodes, advocacy director of the non-profit Greater Eugene Area Riders (GEARs) (and winner of the BTA’s Alice Award in 2009), reported yesterday that despite excitement over it getting re-painted, he had hoped for more.
