If you know of a better place for biking, I’d like to know about it. One of the best things about Portalnd is it’s love of cycling, whethet it’s on the road, in the mud, or just plain old rolling around town. As you’d expect there are a number of awesome shops in the area. I’ve had a lot of luck with the Bike Gallery, but if you’re looking for a more independent feel, I’ve heard Gateway Bicycle on 119th and Halsey is a well-informed and personal experience. Any other recommendations for stores, routes, or brands should be posted here.
Willamette Shore Trolley
This historic trolley runs for seven miles between Portland and Lake Oswego along the Willamette River. Often called the Willamette Shore Trolley, the line passes through the Johns Landing area, by Willamette Park, and through scenic wooded areas. Currently trolley patrons ride in vintage cars on the old route, but there are discussions between city officials, citizen groups, and transportation representatives on whether a new streetcar line should be constructed.
