Porltand Bike Rush Hour on Hawthorne!

[LESS INFO] 31 VIEWS | ADDED 21:02:14 04/29/09
PORTLAND, Ore. - I love collaborating with Clarence Eckerson, Jr. You may remember our Sasquatch video. We have a ton of fun talking shop and rollin' tape. In this video are cool bike wheels, Clarence, Greg Raisman, Elly Blue, and bikey SE people (plus a brief shot of the Disco Trike rollin' slow). Here's more stuff from Streetfilms.org The first time you visit Portland, Oregon, the gaggles of cyclists streaming over the Hawthorne Bridge during rush hour is a sight you will never forget. It's something other cities need to see and be inspired by. On a recent vacation there, I couldn't resist cranking out a Streetfilms shortie, so I naturally hooked up with Crank My Chain's Dan Kaufman to capture the essence of the PM rush and talk to cyclists about what it feels like to be a part of the mass of cyclist humanity in Southeast Portland, Hawthorne corridor. As Greg Raisman from Portland's Bureau of Transportation pointed out: 20% of all traffic on the Hawthorne Bridge is bikes. And, Portland's number of cyclists has risen 600% in the last fifteen years and shows no sign of letting up.

Idaho 'Rolling' Stops for Bicycles in Oregon

[LESS INFO] 36 VIEWS | ADDED 05:18:15 04/15/09
Animation by Spencer Boomhower. http://boomhower.com The Oregon Legislature is considering passage of a law that would allow bicycle riders to treat stop signs as yield signs. These "rolling stops" would allow bike riders to preserve some of the momentum they depend upon for efficient travel, just so long as they don't infringe on the safety and rights of others. The law is based on one that's been successful in Idaho for the last 27 years, so it's come to be known as the "Idaho Stop" law. There's some controversy - and whole lot of misunderstanding - surrounding the proposed Idaho Stop law. Spencer Boomhower ( http://boomhower.com ) does a great job helping clear thing up with the magic of animation. Music: "Celebrated Shoo Fly Galop" by W.L.

Sunday’s Citizen’s Opposition and Alternatives to the Columbia River Crossing rally felt like a sea change. Participants were we greeted by warm spring weather, excellent speeches, and solidarity in opposition to the I-5 CRC crossing as it’s being presented currently. Several groups and governments from both sides of the river (and aisle) were represented and spoke to the large crowd at the Tom McCall Waterfront Park in downtown Portland, Oregon.

In our third snippet from the Bridge Shopping Network things go “all-CSPAN” as the show is hacked live into the Joe Cortright’s formal testimony at the Jan 29th Portland City Council meeting on the Columbia River Crossing (CRC). It's surely not what the BS Network hosts have in mind, as things become wonky and counter-productive to their sales pitch. Ride you bike to this Sunday’s Citizen’s Opposition and Alternatives Rally 12-noon at Tom McCall Waterfront Park Near the Morrison Bridge. Semi-Organized Rides to the rally are posted here.

PORTLAND, Ore.- This video is about a year old so the information about the National Hand Built Bicycle Show is out of date, everything else is pretty relevant. It features Natalie Ramsland of Sweetpea Bicycles (Portland, OR) and interview with Jonathan Maus of bikeportland.org. Video directed by Daniel Sharp, filmed by David McMurry, edited by Alden Morgan.

Booker's Powder Coating for Bicycles

[LESS INFO] 52 VIEWS | ADDED 04:13:04 02/06/09
Portland, Ore. - Pinky Gets a Powder Coat is a short documentary/infomercial about how my sister got her tired looking bike repainted. Actually, the frame and fork were powder coated -- a different process than painting -- which involves baking a very durable plastic-like coating onto steel, aluminum, and other metals. Powder coating has become very popular option for giving new life to motorcycles, bicycles, car parts and other metal items like lawn furniture. Brooker Enterprises specializes in powder coating. Find out more at BrookerEnterprises.com or drop by 3714 SE Powell in Portland (503-236-2565 ). This video was produced by CrankMyChain.tv in association with BikePortland.org for Brooker Enterprises.

I'll post again when they screen it.
