I’m getting pumped up for the August 14 Providence Bridge Pedal, a tour of 10 Portland bridges on bicycle. I’ll be hitting all 10 bridges for the 38-mile ride, and it’s going to be really nice to get a chance to take pictures of downtown from the top of the Marquam bridge. This bridge is usually inaccessible on a bike, since it’s part of the I-5 freeway. I’m not sure how they’re working all this out, but they’ll be closing I-5 to traffic for several hours. Apparently the ride draws about 15,000 cyclists and it’s the second-largest community cycling event in the United Stats.

I just picked up this 2004 Marin Argenta, it’s nice. Carbon all over the place.
