PDX Breakfast on the Bridgesbonbpdx@social.ridetrans.it
2025-12-05

How do you get through the dark times?? WITH BREAKFAST ON A BRIDGE. The November and December BONBs are combined into one. Join us on Friday, December 5th for a St Lucia BONB. Head candles optional. Rain gear encouraged. Plus, our newest bridge Sellwood is BACK AGAIN!

If you looking for a volunteer opportunity in the south part of Metro area, we're looking to add to the crew for Sellwood to make it a permanent bridge. Especially folks with trailers/cargo bikes willing to help haul.

Hey Fediverse! Announcing cycle.town, a new instance dedicated to urbanism and bikes!

We're running the glitch-soc patches, including increased character limit. Still more to configure, but the server is ready to take registrations. (Our domain is just a few days new and is still being marked as spam by some email providers; check your junk folder for your confirmation emails.)

For anyone in #Beaverton interested in going to the #PDX fediverse meetup by bike, I'm leading a ride today through the zoo and over the steel bridge to Laurelhurst via Ankeny. It looks like the rain may stop shortly before we leave, so be sure to bring your fenders!

today in the life: emailing bike shops in portland to see if they know someone who'd teach me how to perform maintenance on my fancy cargo bike πŸ˜‚

it's too heavy to fit on a normal stand! and too big to flip upside down! I can stand it on its end, but how do I keep it balanced while safely accessing the rear wheel?

these questions and more
