“Biking in Portland is a social thing – you run into people you know all over town, maybe take a detour with them so you can talk a bit. There’s a plethora of bike clubs and regular monthly fun-rides. Biking gets you out of glass boxes and puts you into the world – we all know that – and in Portland the world is smooth, flat and smells like fresh rain. It is also full of front-yard gardens and old wooden houses, street art, bridges, waterways, and nice people who’ll talk to you.”
Bicycle Dream Date is the title of a mushy ode to “la vida bicycle” in Portland, Oregon. It appeared in Momentum Magazine, the truly awesome bike-culture mag from Vancouver, BC. (See all of Mykle’s Momentum articles here.)
