Portland’s rep as a cycling Mecca goes without saying. There’s just so many aspects to its cycling culture, it’s difficult to know where to begin.

Wallet? Check. Cellphone? Check. Camera? Hmmm. I stood at the counter this morning, looking at my camera. I take it along a lot when I’m on my bike, because, well, you never know. The pause of looking at that camera was a pinch longer than usual. I remember that last time I took a longer […]
