I arrived a week and a half ago in is suburb of Kansas City. I haven't done as much bicycling as I would like to but frankly I've been so busy with services, music and preparations for the upcoming summer educational program that all I've managed are some back and forth trips with the loaner bike and trailer. I am using the same trailer as last year, and a new, bigger bicycle tht fits me better. I was goingg to bring a bike but was then asked not to, and instead they found me a different loaner bike that fits better this year.
I hope there will be time for at least a couple of longer rides while I'm here. More later.
Happy riding!

Bikelovejones lives the bicycle life in Portland, Oregon: car-free since 1990, she gets around town by a combination of bicycle and transit, occasionally towing her guitar to gigs with an old kiddie trailer.
After two decades in the bicycle industry as a shop owner, mechanic and purchaser, she retired to pursue other creative projects.
She still keeps a hand in bikey things by taking in repairs and tune-ups by appointment at her own tiny workshop; and by volunteering her mechanical services at bicycle races and citizen events like Sunday Parkways. Beth is also the driving force behind a little project called Refugee Bikes; she collects donated adult bikes and accessories, tunes them up and hands them off to an organization that helps newly-arrived refugees learn their way around Portland.
If you live in PDX and want some experienced, very affordable mechanical love thrown at your bike -- or you want to help Beth's Refugee Bike Project keep moving along, drop a line here.
