Human powered exploration. Bicycles. Touring. Camping. Film Photography. Portland!
Apologies for being the bearer of bad news, but I've decided to cancel this weekend's East Portland Cemeteries Ride. The weather forecast calls for a rainy weekend starting on Friday.

Powell Grove Cemetery, 30 October 2021. Minolta Hi-Matic 7s/Ilford XP2+ Hey folks!

So consumed I won't even be able... Continue Reading →

Anyways, it was a beautiful fall day on Saturday October 30th--sun and a high somewhere between 55F and 60F (13-16C). I had a little over a dozen participants that met me at... Continue Reading →

Fun fact: I get a lot of "crazy" ideas for bike rides, but only do a fraction of them. And when I throw out something that's a bit off the beaten path, a bit eccentric, I wonder if anyone is going to show up to these things. So it's always a pleasant surprise when people... Continue Reading →
