Transportation Equality Press Conference and Speeches

Watch Video & Read Story

PORTLAND, Ore.- Transportation activists gathered Friday to speak at a press conference promoting a Sautrday rally for transportation equality. The event was organized by Eleanor Blue and hosted by Jonathan Maus. Speakers included attorneys Bob Mionske and Ray Thomas, activists Scott Bricker, Jessica Roberts, Ellen Vanderslice, and author Joe Kurmaskie who also hosted the rally Saturday.

Dozens including reporters from OPB, KEX, KPAM, KGW and many other attened the press conference, which in turn drew hundreds to the rally.

My camera and microphone were too far from the speakers at Saturday's rally so I do not have good coverage of that event and the great speeches.

Filmmaker Vincent Caldoni was able to capture some footage of a few of the speeches and posted them as part of a great article at the Portland Mercury and YouTube.

Barton Park's Baddest Badass

Watch Video & Read Story

Click to Play

ESTACADA, OR - Four contenders competed for the "Baddest Badass" purse at Cross Crusade Race #5 Sunday.

Tony Tapay had a strong showing in the single speeds and has been declared Baddest Badass. He was followed closely by Badass Tad Bamfod who rides a fixed gear bike.

Jonathan "Badass" Maus who co-hosted the live feed from Barton Park hit a rock and slid out (see the Barton Quick Edit). He fell back a few spots from his strong showing last week.

Greg Sanders also ran into some issues during the race. He did complete it, though, and can also wear the title of Badass, but he can't wear the purse. At least not this week.

All Badasses rode out to the Cyclocross Crusade and completed their race. It's not easy.

Coverage of Barton Park and the Badass Purse is brought to you by Sellwood Cycle Repair.

Clarence: The Traffic Calming Wizard

Watch Video & Read Story

New York, NY - Clarence Eckerson, Jr.has morphed into a traffic calming Wizard.

From the StreetFilms Vlog:

We went back to check in how things were progressing on the NYC DOT’s plans for the 9th Avenue physically separated bike lane. The pleasant surprises continue as lane improvements, ample signage, and cyclist-only bike signals have now appeared making the innovative project even safer. And although driver behavior continues to improve, there are a few problems to highlight.
