my portland couchsurfing host’s garage. there’s also a bike trailer and two more bikes outside. 10 people live in the house.
the hawthorne bridge bike counter! i think it said 582 at the time i took the pic (sunday afternoon, 14.04.13). i wonder where the detector is, though.. do all cyclists turn right or do some go straight? are they both counted? does it count bike traffic on the other direction?
edit: answers here at oregonlive, 17.03.13.and the counter was donated by cycle oregon.results of daily bike counts here.
bikes’ ultimate purpose.
metrofiets @velo cult, portland, or.
it started hailing while I was almost to my destination

then I decided it was probably a good idea to stop and take cover under a tree until the hail/rain died down a bit.

only in moments like these do I wish I had a helmet on. (or an actual water-resistant windbreaker)

anyway, glad I had my ass saver in my bag. I put that on my bike and got to the neighborhood beerpub for happy hour.

Am I a Portlander yet?
maybe not, but getting close.

borrowed my cs host’s girlfriend’s bike. It’s a vintage Raleigh that’s lighter than my Raleigh! converted to single speed, on the smaller chainring.

so, yes, travel advice: borrow a bike. explore the city farther than you can by walking. keep fit. have more fun!
