Cirque du Cycling

Portland, OR
Parade, Mississippi St, June 13, 2009

There was a contingency of cargo bike riders in the parade. Thanks for showing up. It was a sight.

James, thanks for making the banner. This banner was commercial quality--made to fit, clamps for attachments, sturdy construction. Clever Cycles or you will want to keep that for future events. The phrase, "WeGo Cargo" is also superb. Sounds like a shirt, maybe club, idea. James has the cool dog box with Louie.

There were Xtracycles, a Mundo (glad you could make it Greg), bakfiets, a large cargo bike (don't know the proper name but Scott piloted it), and Metrofiets. I have never seen anyone do a bunny-hop on a cargo bike, but Phillip (of Metrofiets) managed to do so although I would not let him bunny-hop me. Thanks for bringing the Metrofiets clan out in numbers.

Scott, thanks for picking up and biking the Big Bike from Clever Cycles. Not only did you get it through the parade, but the trip from Clever Cycles to Mississippi Street was probably an exhausting one with a 1:1 gear bike. What a trooper. Scott had all four of his children in the box...we're talking super utility.

Zabee biked to the parade so she gets honorary title of zobster!
