This could be Portland's future.
If we're heading to $9/gallon gas, Portland needs to prioritize space for cycling the way Paris has.
Crucially, Paris has not shied been putting two-way bike paths on their "arterials" to create direct, comfortable routes.

"I was just such a rider for many years. I loved my gear and was pleased with the grit. Particularly when that first real winter rain that would come down, signaling the end of the easy season."

Had some time on my bike commute today so rode out to Kelley Point Park in Portland. It’s where the Willamette and Columbia rivers meet and is a nice bit of nature in the middle of an industrialized port area. This is a good place to photograph birds too.

Rode up to #CouncilCrest on my very heavy #MarinMuirwoods on a foggy, rainy day. I was pretty soaked by time I got to the top but it was NOT from the rain.

First one to arrive at Coffe Outside this morning. 3rd place rolling in in the background. Next time I'll be fashionably late.
