Timo & Esther are established figures in the Portland transportation scene, Timo as a part of the Portland Bureau of Transportation & Esther with Sunday Parkways events. We chat with them about how bicycling (and breakfast on the bridges) brought them together, a bikey wedding near Silverton, OR, and a honeymoon of epic proportions through southern Europe!
Our musings on bicycle music brought these mentions: Johnnyrandom’s “Bespokenâ€, Frank Zappa, and the Portland Bike Ensemble.
Also: Brock rides through the hardest rain of the season to check out the new Type 5 MAX light rail cars, meets listener John from Maine; Aaron is off drugs! He also ran into Greg and Sarah from Funemployment Radio, who are having a live show soon. Â The Transportastic studio opener was awesome.
Zoe is our newest monthly supporter (and also a vocal one)! Thanks! Â JohnnyK has been donating forever and somehow never made it into the credits. Â Bad, Brock, bad!
Chris in Chico climbs 3000 feet at Lassen Volcanic National Park’s car free day, and Meets His Maker at a Paul Components event.
Dan Christensen shares this photo of a man’s recumbent bike/inflatable raft combo! The website Adventures of Greg is a human powered adventure log!Dan in MN looks pretty damn awesome in his raingear.

This is us climbing over the hilly border from the Costa Brava to the Côte Vermeille on our Bromptons. The sign warned of “vent violent” (strong wind) with a picture of the windsock.
This was the view behind us; The town of Cerbére on the Côte Vermeille with bonus 16th century graveyard on the way down.
