Sprokettes at Multnomah County Bike Fair
SE Portland, Oregon

Portland’s Pedalpalooza events are wrapping up this weekend, but one of the best events is still to come–the Multnomah County Bike Fair. It appears to have moved from the traditional location of Colonel Summers Park to “12th and Alder”…which I guess means Washington high school. Here is the description from a few years back:

HOT DAMN, WE’RE HAVING A FAIR!
And you’re going to want to be there! The Multnomah County Bike Fair brings 1,200 people together to celebrate, in bicycle mayhem-fashion, the close of Shift’s Pedalpalooza.Come to visit fun booths, vendors, and bicycle crafts. And do partake in the competitions because competing is free and it’s about the fun, not the winning you know.

Chris Joseph is a local success story. After a long stint as general manager at Berbati's in the 90's, he continued to prosper as owner of the Blue Monk. Chris also helped create the Portland (and Seattle) International Brew Fests. The man knows his beer; there are over 100 to select from at his latest bar-the Morrison Hotel.

Moho is not really a hotel-it's named after the infamous 1970 Doors album, and the logo on the sign above the door tells all. The bar's two main themes are Read the rest of this entry »

Previous match-up(s): 4/17/11 3-2 Portland

The Timbers will face the heat in Dallas as both the climate and the Hoops pose serious obstacles to a Timbers club in need of a win.
Portland’s last victory came four weeks ago now and the Timbers will be desperate for the full three points. Two improved performances in the last two games have seen the Timbers come away with only one point as finishing and concentration continue to be the club's weak points.

The Timbers will be returning a similar line-up to the one they used against New York. However, they will be without the services of Read the rest of this entry »
